Answer:
c.8,625grams of flour
4a. X=12
Y=30
Z=60
Explanation:
For c. , You have to convert the mixed numbers to fractions.
2¾ cups of flour= 2×4=8
8+3=11
Answer: 11/4 (11 over 4)
You multiply the 2 (whole number) by the 4 (bottom number) and then you get *8*
You then take the 8 (which was your answer) and add 3. This will give you 11
You take the 4 and use it as your denominator (bottom number) for the 11. So no need to find a denominator, because you just use the 4
For the fruit cake, she uses *1½* cups of flour more than carrot cake
Calculation:
1½ converted to an improper fraction= 1×2=2
2+1=3
Answer: 3/2 (3 over 2)
"Customer orders *3* carrot cakes and *4* fruit cakes
How many cups of flour are required to bake for the cakes ordered by the customer?"
11/4÷3= 8,25grams
3/2÷4= 0,375grams
8,25+0,375=8,625grams in total
