Question

Santa needs two thirds of a cup of milk for the biscuits he's making, but he has only a one-fourth cup measure. How many times must Santa fill his cup to get the right amount of milk?

Answer 1

2.67 times

Step-by-step explanation:

To know how many times must Santa fill his cup, we need to divide 2/3 by 1/4, so we get:

`(2)/(3)/(1)/(4)=(2)/(3)*(4)/(1)=(2*4)/(3)=(8)/(3)=2.67`

Therefore, he must fill the cup 2.67 times
