Question

Kylee is making a cake. The box says for every 1/4 cup of water she needs to use 2/4 of the cake mixture. She uses 3 1/4 cups of water. How much cake mixture does she use? (show your answer as a decimal and as a fraction.)​

Answer 1

Answer:

Kylee makes 6 1/2, or 6.5 cups of the cake mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

She uses double the cake mixture as water. She uses 3 1/4 cups of water, or 13/4 as an improper fraction, so she uses double that of cake mixture, which is 6 1/2, or 26/4 cups of cake mixture.

As a decimal that is 6.5.
