Answer: The answer is 15.
Explanation:
In the question, we are informed:
2 1/2 cups sugar for the cake and 1 1/4 cup sugar for the vanilla icing are called for in Mr. Smith's recipe.
1st step
We total the amount of sugar he'll require.
1 1/4 + 2 1/2
(1/2 + 1/4) + (2 + 1)
= 3 + (2 Plus a quarter)
a total of 3 3/4 cups of sugar
2nd Step
How many 1/4 cup sugar scoops does he require?
This can be calculated as follows:
1/4 cup sugar 3 3/4 cup sugar
= 15/4 x 1/4 = 15/4 x 1/4 = 15/4 x 1/4 =
= 15/4/4 = 15/4/4 = 15/4/4 = 15/4/4 = 15/4
15
As a result, he'll require 15, 1/4 cup sugar scoops.
