Answer:
3(3)/(14)\ batches


Explanation:

Cups of cornmeal used for 1 batch of cornbread=
4(2)/(3)\ cups=(14)/(3)\ cups

The total number of cups of cornmeal = 15 cups

The number of batches of cornbread made in 15 cups
=15/ (14)/(3)

⇒The number of batches of cornbread made in 15 cups
=15*(3)/(14)=3(3)/(14)\ batches
