Question

Daniel picked 1 3/4 cups of blueberries, and Eva picked 2 3/4 cups of blueberries. They combined their blueberries, then used 1/3 of the blueberries to make muffins. How many cups of blueberries did they use for the muffins?

Answer 1

`amount \: of \: blueberry \\ (7)/(4) \ + (11)/(4) \\ = (18)/(4 ) cups \\ number \: of \: blueberries \: used \\ = (18)/(4) * (1)/(3) \\ = (18)/(12) \\ = (3)/(2) cups`
