. Beth is making brownies. She makes
3 batches of brownies on Saturday and
4 batches on Sunday. She uses 1/4cup of
butter in each batch. How much butter
does Beth use? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

7/4  or  1  3/4 cups of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

She makes a total of 3 + 4 batches of brownies on both days

So she makes 7 batches of brownies in total

For one batch, she uses 1/4 cups of butter

Since there are seven batches, to get the amount of butter she used, we'll simply multiply 1/4 by 7

this gives,

1/4 * 7

= 7/4

convert to a mixed fraction

1  3/4 cups of butter
