Lynn is making a snack. The recipes call for 3/8 cup of water for oats and 1/4 cup of water for dried fruit. She only has 1 cup of water. Does she have enough to make her snack? Explain

Respuesta :

Answer: She has enough.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to add up the quantities of water needed first. That will then tell if she has enough water.

Convert the fractions to decimals then add them up:

3/8 = 0.375

1/4 = 0.25

= 0.25 + 0.375

= 0.625 cups of water is required.

This is less than the 1 cup she has so she has enough water to make the snack.
