Question

Carlos is making three cakes. One cake requires 3/4 of a cup sugar. How much sugar will he need to make all three cakes?

A. 3
B. 9/12
C. 2 1/4
D. 4

Answer 1

2 1/4 cups

Explanation:

3/4 is for one cake, if Carlos is making 3 times that amount of cakes, Carlos needs three times the amount of sugar. So, our equation is:

3/4 x 3 = 9/4

9/4 = 2 1/4 or 2.25

So, Carlos needs 2 1/4 cups of sugar for 3 cakes
