Problem Solving

Recipe A makes 5 dinner rolls using 1 c of flour. Recipe B makes 24 rolls using 7 1/2 c of flour. which recipe requires the most flour per roll

- To know which recipe requires the most flour per roll, let's convert fraction to decimal.

before that let's convert the recipe B from mixed fraction to decimal then, the total is the numerator and make 24 as the denominator.

How do we convert fraction to decimal?

- Divide the numerator by the denominator.

• 
  `\tt(1)/(2) = 0.5`

- Then, add the whole number. ( if it is mixed fraction)

• 
  `\tt 0.5 + 7 = 7.5`

Recipe B

• 
  `\tt 7.5/ 24 =0.31`

`\rightarrow`Recipe B
`\tt =(7.5)/(24)=0.31`

Recipe A

• 
  `\tt 1/ 5=0.2`

`\rightarrow`Recipe A
`\tt = (1)/(5)=0.2`

Recipe B is great than Recipe A

Therefore, Recipe B requires the most flour per roll.
