Question

Andrew is making cookies for his siblings. The recipe calls for 4.8 end style cups of sugar and 2 1/5 cups of flour. If he has already added 1/4 cup of flour, how much more flour does he need

Answer 1

1 19/20

Explanation:

I would convert 1/5 and 1/4 to fractions

2.20 minus 0.25 leaves 1.95

5 and 4 share a common multiple of 20

Which means we will need another 1 whole and 19/20 cups of flower
