Answer: 13 & 1/2 cups of sugar
Whole part = 13
Fractional part = 1/2
===================================================
Explanation:
4 & 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 = 4 + 0.5 = 4.5
1 batch = 3 cups sugar
4.5*(1 batch) = 4.5*(3 cups sugar)
4.5 batches = 13.5 cups of sugar
The decimal number 13.5 converts to the mixed number 13 & 1/2 which is the same as writing 13 1/2
No, the sum of 12 and 15 is 27
