Question

Carlos had 7¾ cups of cheese. After making 5 pizzas, he now only has 2 cups of cheese. How much cheese did Carlos use?

Answer 1

5 3/4 cups of cheese used for the pizza

Explanation:

7 3/4 = 31/4 cups cheese to start

Two cups of cheese remaining. 2 = 8/4 cups

31/4 cups - 8/4 cups = 23/4 cups used for the pizza.

23/4 = 5 3/4 cups of cheese used for the pizza
