Question

The baker used 3/4 pounds powdered sugar to cover 2 dozen donuts. If he split the powder sugar evenly among the two sets of donuts how much did each dozen get?

Answer 1

Each dozen of donuts did get
`3/8` pounds of powdered sugar from the baker.

Explanation:

Hi

If the baker split the powder sugar evenly among the two sets of donuts, this means that each set did get half of the 3/4 pounds of powdered sugar, so we divide
`(3)/(4) / 2=(3)/(8)pounds` was the amount of powdered sugar that each set (dozen) did get.
