Question

A recipe calls for 0. 8 ounces of cheese. If I makes 35 batches of this recipe, how many ounces of cheese do I need?

Answer 1

Answer: 28 oz

Explanation:

for every batch, you will need 0.8 ounces.

so one way to solve this is to add 0.8 35 times to get the final answer.

However, repeated addition is the same as multiplication. you can simply evaluate 0.8 * 35 = 28 oz

thats the answer!
