Question

Wendy is creating a large soup based on a recipe. Her recipe calls for 3/4 of a pint of milk, but she only has 5/8 of a pint of milk, so she can only make a portion of her soup.

Wendy can only make ________ of her recipe with the amount of milk that she has.

Answer 1

Answer: its 5/6 of the recipe

Step-by-step explanation: So you're doing division, alright. 5/8 divided by 3/4 is 5/6. You divide fractions by changing the expression to multiplication, flipping the sencond fraction upside down, then simplifying (if possible) then multiplying.
