Problem

If Karen has 6 cups of oatmeal and she divides it into 3/4 cup servings, how many servings of oatmeal will she have? ​

Solution

For this case the operation that we need to do is:


\frac{6\text{cups}}{(3)/(4)\frac{\text{cups}}{\text{serving}}}=(6\cdot4)/(3)==(24)/(3)=8\text{servings}

And for this case the final answer would be 8 servings
