Answer:

2.25 Cups.

Explanation:

We know that we can change the 1 1/2 to 3/2.

Next, we want the LCM, or Lowest Common Denominator.

Denominator is the bottom part of the fraction.

The Lowest Common Denominator for 2/3 and 3/2 is 6.

So we need to change the denominators to 6.

To do that, we would multiply 2/3 by 2, and multiply 3/2 by 3.

Then we get 4/6, and 9/6.

Divide 9/6 by 4/6 and you will get your answer.

Which is 2.25.

Or.. 2 1/4.
