Hi, I need help with this story problem.


Zach has the following partial bags of sugar in his pantry; 2 c., 1.5 c., 0.5 c., 3 c., and 1.5 c. If he uses 1 c. of sugar for his baking, how many cups of sugar will he have left?​

Respuesta :

Answer: 7.5 cups of sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Add all of the above:

2+1.5+0.5+3+1.5= 8.5 cups of sugar

Since Zach only needs 1 cup of sugar, subtract 1 from 8.5.

Therefore, your answer is 7.5 cups of sugar.
