Emilio needs 1/2 stick of butter to make cornbread . He also needs 1/4 stick of butter to make apple muffins . Does Emilio need more than I stick of butter to make both recepes or less than 1 stick of butter ? How do you know?
Cornbread = 1/2 stick of butter
Apple muffins = 1/4 stick of butter
Total sticks of butter = cornbread + apple muffins
= 1/2 + 1/4
= (2+1) / 4
= 3/4 stick of butter
= 0.75 stick of butter
0.75 stick of butter is less than 1 stick of butter
Therefore,
Emilio needs less than 1 stick of butter
