Question

A recipe requires 1\4 of a cup of cranberries for 1 batch. How many beaches of scones can be made using 6 1/2 cups of cranberries?​

Answer 1

26

Explanation:

1 batch is 1/4 cups of cranberries.

This means that we have to find the number of groups of 1/4 in 6 1/2 cups to find the number of batches.

(The decimal forms of these numbers are 6.5 and 0.25)

6.5/0.25=26

There are 26 batches
