Priya has a recipe for banana bread. She uses 7 1/2 cups of flour to make 3 loaves of
banana bread.Andre will follow the same recipe but only wants to make one loaf of
bread. How much flour will Andre use?

Respuesta :

Answer:

2 1/2 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

Priya is making 3 loaves of bread, so she will use 7 1/2 cups of flour.

Andre is making 1 loaf of bread, which is 1/3 the amount of loaves Priya is making. So, he will be using 1/3 the amount of flour Priya is using. So all we have to do is take 7 1/2 and divide it by 3:

7.5/3 = 2.5

Andre will use 2 1/2 cups of flour.
