Question

Desiree has 16.5 cups of flour. Each batch of

pancakes requires 1.25 cups. Determine how
many batches of pancakes Desiree can make
and have 5.25 cups of flour left.

Answer 1

Answer: Desiree can make 9 batches of pancakes

Step-by-step explanation: I literally just added 1.25 a whole bunch of times until I got 11.25, and 11.25 + 5.25 = 16.50. Then I added up the number of times I added 1.25 together and got 9.
