lets set up our problem.
We need to multiply our recipe by 2. soo..
×
But we have to change our 2 and 1/2 fraction into an improper fraction.
So you multiply the denominator and add the numerator to get the new numerator. So 2 x 2 +1 = 5 and the old denominator stays the same. 5/2
Now we can multiply.
× =
10 ÷ 2 = 5
So this means that you will need 5 pounds of cream cheese in order to make 2 cheese cakes. - Yum
Good Luck! :)
Recall that one whole is 1, or in this case since the denominator is 4, then 4/4 is 1 whole, so the whole lawn is 4/4.
The answer is 58/100 or 29/50ths
Are you asking what the answer is because you are not asking us anything. I would really like to help you out but I need to know what the question is first.
Suppose you roll a red number cube and a blue number cube. What is the probability that you will roll a 5 on the red cube and a 1 or 2 on the blue cube?
