Question

a new recipe calls for 1/3 cups sugar and you have 2 1/3 cups in the pantry if you have unlimited supplies of the other ingredients how many recipes could you make? PLS HELP ​

Answer 1

7 recipes could be made with
`2(1)/(3)` cups of sugar.

Explanation:

Quantity of sugar required for a recipe
`=(1)/(3)` cups

Quantity of sugar required in a pantry
`=2(1)/(3)` cups

Here,

`2(1)/(3)=(7)/(3)`

So,

Quantity of sugar required in a pantry
`=(7)/(3)` cups

Number of recipes that could be made
`=((7)/(3) )/((1)/(3) ) =7`

Therefore, 7 recipes could be made with
`2(1)/(3)` cups of sugar.
