She needs altogether 2 2/4. that is 2 wholes and 2/4 fraction. if we consider using 1/4 cup, 1 whole is made of four quarter cups. Therefore 2 wholes require eight quarter cups. Then theres a remaining fraction of 2/4 which is equivalent to two quarter cups. 1/4 + 1/4 = 2/4. Therefore altogether 8 + 2 = 10 of the 1/4 cups are required for the recipe. 10 of 1/4 cups are needed is this right? Yes or no

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

According to the analysis;

There are four 1/4 cups in one whole

There are eight 1/4 cups in two wholes

Then the fraction 2/4 = 1/4 + 1/4 Hence there are two 1/4 cups in 2/4.

Altogether we have the fraction 2 2/4 as 8 + 2 = 10 measures of 1/4 cups

To confirm, 10 * 1/4 = 2 2/4

Therefore, the analysis is correct.
