Eugene's grandmother is teaching him how to make her salsa recipe. Each batch of salsa requires 1 4 of a cup of red onions. If they have 1 1 2 cups of red onions, how many batches of salsa can they make? batches of salsa (Enter all mixed numbers as x y/z.)

Answer 1

They can make six salsa batches

Explanation:

Here, we are told that each salsa batch require 1/4 of a cup of red onions and they have 1 1/2 cups, we want to know the number of batches of salsa that can be made

Mathematically, that would be 1 1/2 divided by 1/4

That is;

3/2 divided by 1/4

Hence;

3/2 * 4/1 = 12/2 = 6

They can make six batches of salsa
