Answer 1

Part A: Total number of cups of biscuit mix in one box is 18 cups.

Part B: You can make 54 biscuits using one box of biscuit mix.

Part C: 0.12 $ per biscuit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: 72 x 1/4

Part B: In the chart, it shows us a pattern. The number of cups required times 3 = the number of biscuits or vice versa. So the number of cups required is 18 and 18 x 3 is 54 so we can make 54 biscuits.

Part C: 6.48$/54

Good Luck!
