Question

a recipe calls for 2 1/3 cups of flour. How many cups of flour, written as a fraction greater than one, are used in the recipe?

Answer 1

Answer:

7/3 cups of fluor are used in the recipe

Step-by-step explanation:

2 1/3 = (2*3+1)/3

2 1/3 = (6+1)/3

2 1/3 = 7/3

Answer 2

For this case, we must convert a mixed number into an improper fraction (where the numerator is greater than or equal to the denominator).

$2 \frac {1} {3}$

It is equivalent to:

$2+ \frac {1} {3} = \frac {3 * 2 + 1 * 1} {3} = \frac {6 + 1} {3} =\frac {7} {3}$

$\frac {7} {3}$ cups flour is required.

Answer:

$\frac {7} {3}$ cups of flour is required.
