Answer:

4 batches

Explanation:

To obtain the number of batches of the recipe that can be made ;

We take the divison of the total amount of strawberry by the amount of strawberry required per batch :

Pounds of strawberry per recipe = 0.75 pound

Total pounds of strawberry = 3.15 pound

= 3.15 / 0.75

= 4.2

We round down :

4.2 batches = 4 batches of the recipe can be made
