Answer:
1. 3 quarts
2. 16 cakes
3. 4/8 pound
4. 7 1/4 days
5. Choice A
A board that is 1/4 yard long is cut into 2 equal pieces. How long is each piece?
Step-by-step explanation:
Q1.
Each serving is 1/8 quart, so 24 servings will need 1/8 x 24 = 3 quarts
Q2.
Each cake requires 1/4 cup oil. So with 1 cup you can make 4 x 1 = 4 cakes
Therefore with 4 cups you can make 4 x 4 = 16 cakes
Q3.
There are 4 sandwiches and 8 turkeys. To evenly distribute 4 lbs of turkey between 8 sandwiches, each sandwich should have 4/8 pound
Q4.
Goal is to run 22 miles
Let x be the number of days he runs at the rate of 3 miles per day
Then 3x = 22
X = 22/3 days
This can be simplified as 7 1/4 days
Q5.
If you want to find the length of each piece divide total length by number of pieces and that is 1/4 yard ÷ 2 pieces
Thus choice A is the right answer
The equation for choice B is 2 ÷ 1/4
The equation of choice C is 2 x 1/4
The equation of choice D is 2 - 1/4
