Answer:

Explanation:

Cora uses 0.3 cups of flower per cake. Wyatt uses 0.35 cups of flower per cake. I do not know what else you are asking for, but Cora does use 0.05 less cups of flower than Wyatt.

To find this all I did is divided flower by cakes to get flower per cake. I hope this helps!

1/20 cups

Explanation:

Wyatt

  • 3.15/9=315/900=7/20

Cora:

  • 2.4/8=24/80=3/10

The difference:

  • 7/20-3/10=7/20-6/20=1/20 cups
