Answer 2

Answer:

No, she needs 1/6 cup more

Step-by-step explanation:

She has 3 1/4 cups

She uses  2 2/3

Subtract

3 1/4 - 2 2/3

Get a common denominator of 12

3 1/4 *3/3  - 2 2/3 *4/4

3 3/12 - 2 8/12

Borrow 1

2 12/12 +3/12 - 2 8/12

2 15/12 - 2 8/12

7/12

She borrows 1 cup

1 7/12

She needs 1 3/4 *3/3  =1 9/12

She is short

1 9/12 - 1 7/12 =  2/12  or 1 /6
