Question:

A recipe calls for
\large 25(2)/(3) cups of flour. Cookie monster wants to make
\large (1)/(2) of the recipe. How much flour should cookie monster use?

Answer:

Step-by step Explanation

Step 1: Convert the required cups to improper fraction.


\large 25(2)/(3) =

Step 2: Multiply 77/3 by 1/2.


(77)/(3) ×
(1)/(2)

=> 77/6 Cups.

Final Answer:

After working on this problem, we can conclude that the required cups of flour to make the half of the recipe is 77/6 cups.
