Question
A cook has 2 2/3 cups of flour. A recipe calls for 2 3/4 cups of flour. Does the cook have enough flour? If not, how much more flour is needed?

Answer 1

flour = 2 2/3
actual recipe (flour) = 2 3/4

so flour needed is
(2 2/4) - (2 3/3) = 1/12 (using calculator)

Answer 2

Answer:

No the cook doesn't have enough flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

You first need to find a common denominator of twelve. So you are 1/12 a cup of flour short.
