Given :

Teresa is going to make 3 batches of cookies.

She needs 3/4 milk for each. Her measuring cup only holds 1/4 gallon.

To Find :

How many times will she need to fill up.

Solution :

Amount of milk need per batch, A = 3/4 gallon.

Measuring cup only holds, m = 1/4 gallon.

Number of times she need to fill up,

n = A/m = (3/4)/(1/4) = 3

Now, number of batches are three.

So, number of time she need to fill up in three batch.


N = n * 3 \\\\N = 3 * 3 \\\\N = 9

Therefore, this is the required solution.
