Answer 1

To find the total amount of pumpkin seeds, multiply the amount per bag by the number of bags, which results in 9/4 cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks how many cups of pumpkin seeds a program has if it has been gifted three bags, with each bag containing 3/4 cup of seeds.

First, we calculate the total amount of seeds by multiplying the amount in one bag by the number of bags:

3/4 cup per bag × 3 bags = 2 1/4 cups or 9/4 cups.
