Question

Sally brought a 1 quart container of buttermilk to make pancakes. Her recipe says to use 1/2cups Of butter milk for 3 pancakes. How many pancakes can sally make?

Answer 1

24

Explanation:

Quart is a volume unit, equal to a quarter of a gallon. The symbol is "qt"

A quart container is equivalent to 4 cups.

a pancake need only 1/2 cup of butter milk.

We use a rule of three.

if 1/2 cup can make 3 pancakes.

How many pancakes 4 cups can make?

`(4*3)/((1)/(2) )`=24

We only have to multiply the 4 cups of butter milk by the 3 pancakes and the divide it by the 1/2 cup you need to make only 3 pancakes.
