1
2
cups of apple,
3
4
cup of oranges, and
2
3
cup of grapes. How many cups of fruit salad will Brett’s recipe make

Answer 1

you will just add them all up to find your answer

Answer 2

I'm supposing that those would practically be known to be fractions above, as I can see they are not properly placed in order, but, that would be "ok". So, from knowing this above, the main thing that we would do in this case is to understand that we would then have to consider the question, "how many cups of fruit". Therefore, we would then stop from there, we are going to consider the amount of fruit.We would then do the following:


`\boxed{ 1(1)/(2)+ (3)/(4) + (2)/(3) = 2 (11)/(12) }`

She would then have to use only (2)11/12 of fruit.
