A recipe calls for 3 1/3 cups of flour. You want to make a new recipe with 1/3 of the flour. How much flour is in the new recipe?

Hey there!!

Let us take the total cups of flour = 3 1/3

Cups we have = 1/3

Cups we need = x

1/3 + x = 3 1/3

x = 3 1/3 - 1/3

x = 10/3 - 1/3

x = 9/3

x = 2

We will need 2 more cups

Hope helps!
