Question

Sarah used 2.5 cups of cheese in a dish that serves 10 people. Amyn used 1.6 cups of cheese in a dish that serves 8 people.

How much more cheese is in one serving of Sarah’s dish?
A. 0.5 cup
B. 0.25 cup
C. 0.2 cup
D. 0.05 cup

Answer 1

Answer: 0.05 cup

Explanation:

Divide 2.5 by 10 to find how much is in one of Sarah’s dish.

This gives you 0.25

Divide 1.6 by 8 to find how much is in one of Amyn's dish.

This gives you 0.2

Now minus 0.2 from 0.25.

This gives you 0.05 cup
