A batch of chicken required 3 1/3 cups of flour if a fast food restaurant was making 4 3/7 batches, how much flour would they need ?

Respuesta :

Blast
3 1/3 x 4 3/7 

= 10/3 x 31/7 = 310/21 = 14 16/21

Answer:

[tex] 14\frac{16}{21}[/tex] cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

1 batch of chicken required 3 1/3 cups of flour

[tex]3\frac{1}{3} =\frac{3 \cdot 3 + 1}{3} =\frac{10}{3}[/tex]

the fast food restaurant was making 4 3/7 batches.

We need to find how much of flour they need to make 4 3/7 batches

[tex]4\frac{3}{7} =\frac{4 \cdot 7 + 3}{7} =\frac{31}{7}[/tex]

1 batch requires [tex]\frac{10}{3}[/tex] cups of flour

[tex]\frac{31}{7}[/tex] batches requires [tex]\frac{31}{7} \cdot \frac{10}{3}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{310}{21}=14\frac{16}{21}[/tex]
