Use words and numbers to explain your answer. What operation did you use to solve and why?

Answer 1

24 scoops of iced tea

Explanation:

Well, the way that I am going to solve this question is by calculating how many 1/4 cups she needs to get 1 cup and then multiply that by 6.

1/4 x 4 = 1

So 4 times 6 equals 24.

In conclusion, she needs 24 scoops

1/4 x 24 = 24/4. 24 divided by 4 equals the 6 cups Anna needs
