Answer 2

Hello! :)

Answer:

No, there is not enough oatmeal to make 21 batches of cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start off by converting 2
`(\\3)/(4)` to an improper fraction.

2
`(3)/(4)` =
`(11)/(4)`

Next, divide the total number of cups by how many cups each batch requires.

`(56)/(1)` ÷
`(\\11)/(4)`

`(56)/(1)` ×
`(4)/(11)` =
`(224)/(11)`

Lastly, convert this fraction to a decimal.

`(224)/(11)` = 20.7 (rounded)

This means that there is not enough for 21 batches.
