Question

3. Marisol made 12 cups of party mix. She gave 3 cups to her mother and 3 cups to her grandmother. How much party mix did Marisol have left for herself? 3 cups ( 6 7 cups 4 cups 6 cups

Answer 1

We will have the following:

`12-2(3(3)/(4))=12-2((12)/(4)+(3)/(4))`
`=12-2((15)/(4))=(9)/(2)`
`=4(1)/(2)`

So, she will have 4 & 1/2 cups.
