write and solve a real world problem involving the mulipation of a fraction and a whole number whose product is between 10 and 15

Respuesta :

A recipe for apple oat muffins calls for 4 4/5 cups of old fashion oats. You are making 2 1/2 of the recipe. How much oats should you use?

4 4/5 turns into improper fraction which is 24/5
2 1/2 turns into improper fraction which is 5/2

24/5 x 5/2= 120/10 
 
Then you simplify 120/10 by multiplying the numerator and denominator by 10 which becomes 12/1 which equals to 12

So the product (answer)  is 12
