Question

A cookie recipe calls for 1 1/3

cups of flour. If Erin wants to make a double recipe, how many cups of flour will she need?

1 1/6
cups

2 1/3
cups

2 2/3
cups

1 1/3
cups

Answer 1

If a single recipe calls for 1 1/3 cups of flour, then a double recipe will require 2 times 1 1/3 cups, which is:

2 x 1 1/3 cups = 2 x 4/3 cups = 8/3 cups

Converting this to a mixed number, we get:

8/3 cups = 2 2/3 cups

Therefore, Erin will need 2 2/3 cups of flour to make a double recipe. Answer: 2 2/3 cups.

Answer 2

Answer: 2 2/3 we have to do 1 1/3 times 2 its gonna be hard if we multiply it in mixed number turn 1 1/3 to 4/3 so now we can multiply 2 times 4 is 8 now we have 8/3 3 can go into 8 2 times minus 6 is two we have 2 2/3
