Question

I use a total of 1 1/5 cups of flours to make 5 batches of cookies how much flour was in each batch

Answer 1

`(6)/(25)\text{cups of flour per batch}`

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1

Let

total cups

`\begin{gathered} 1\text{ }(1)/(5)=((1\cdot5)+1)/(5)=(5+1)/(5)=(6)/(5) \\ \end{gathered}`

and

total batches=5

so, to find out how much flour is in each batch do a division

`\text{flour per bath=}\frac{(6)/(5)cups\text{ of flour}}{5}=(6)/(25)\text{cups of flour per batch}`

I hope this helps yo
