Answer:
Equation: 6f = 5
Result: 6/5 cup of flour is needed for each batch of bread
Explanation:
Given
6 cups of flour makes 5 batches of bread
Required
His much flour is needed for each batch.
Let f represent a cup of flour.
The statement "total of 6 cups of flour to make 5 batches of bread." means that
f + f + f + f + f + f = 5 batches of bread
f * 6 = 5
6f = 5
The above equation will give the number of cup needed for 1 batch of bread.
To do that, we simply divide both sides by 5
6f/5 = 5/5
6f/5 = 1
Hence,
The equation is represented by: 6f = 5
And the result is: 6/5 cup of flour is needed for each batch of bread
