The bake star bakery uses 2 1/4 cups of raisins to make 4 servings of trail mix. How many cups of raisins are in each serving

Sagot :

You have to divide the number of servings by the number of cups of raisins. 4/2(1/4)=16/9 or 1.77777778

Answer

Find out the how many cups of raisins are in each serving.

To prove

As given

The bake star bakery uses [tex]2 \frac{1}{4}[/tex]cups of raisins to make 4 servings of trail mix.

i.e

The bake star bakery uses [tex] \frac{9}{4}[/tex]cups of raisins to make 4 servings of trail mix.

[tex]cups\ of\ raisins\ are\ in\ each\ serving = \frac{Total\ cups\ uses\ in\ each\ serving}{Total\ number\ of\ serving}[/tex]

[tex]cups\ of\ raisins\ are\ in\ each\ serving = \frac{\frac{9}{4}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]cups\ of\ raisins\ are\ in\ each\ serving = \frac{9}{36}[/tex]

[tex]cups\ of\ raisins\ are\ in\ each\ serving = \frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Therefore the cups of raisins are in each serving are [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] .
