Answer: 1/15

Step-by-step explanation: A. If 1/3 cup makes 5 rolls, you need to know how many cups make one. (1/3)/5 = 1/15 Take the number of cups for one roll and multiply it by 3. 1/15 x 3 Final Answer = 3/15

B. Take the number of cups you have divided by 1/3 (since you know how many roles this makes) (5 2/3) / (1/3) Final Answer = 17

C. Well, we already solved for this one in A, didn't we? Final Answer = 1/15
