Question

lee is making chocolate chip cookies and the recipe calls for 3/4 cup of chocolate chips. if she wants to make 2/3 of the recipe, what fraction of a chip of chocolate chips will she need? explain.

Answer 1

First, (again lol) you multiply the amount of chocolate chips the recipe calls for by the amount Lee wants to make.

so its 3/4 * 2/3

=

6/12

1/2

Lee will need a fraction of 1/2 of a chip of chocolate chips for the recipe

Answer 2

`(1)/(2)` cups

Explanation:

Lee is making chocolate chip cookies and recipe requires
`(3)/(4)` cups of chips

Then for
`(2)/(3)` fraction of the recipe will require chocolate chips =
`(3)/(4)` ×
`(2)/(3)`

=
`(1)/(2)` cups

Therefore, Lee will require
`(1)/(2)` cups of chocolate chips.
