For this case what we can do is the following division:
 N = (4) / (2 1/2)
 N = 1.6
 Rewriting:
 N = 1 + 0.6
 N = 1 + 6/10
 N = 1 + 3/5
 Finally we get:
 N = 1 3/5
 Answer:
 Meadow could make with the milk she has about:
 N = 1 3/5
 of the quantity

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Meadow has 4 cups of milk. Required for recipe 2 1/2 cups

To find which proportion of total milk

We have 2 1/2 out of 4

i.e.

[tex]\frac{5}{2} *\frac{1}{4} =\frac{5}{8}[/tex]

i.e. she has to do 5/8 of the total milk she has.
