Yes! If you add 1/3 and 1/3 it equals to 2/3 meaning you’ll have enough for a 3rd recipe if need 1/3 +1/3=.66666 so it’s not completely a cup yet

Yes, Ernesto has enough oil to make both recipes. Each recipe calls for 1/3 cup of oil, and he has one cup of oil. Therefore, he has enough oil to make both recipes with some oil left over.
