Answer:

  15 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of batches, divide the available flour by the amount used per batch.

  (10 c)/(2/3 c/batch) = 10×3/2 batches = 15 batches

Jess can make 15 batches of tarts with her 10 cups of flour.

Answer 2

Answer:

• 15 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

Make proportions:

• 2/3 of a cup → 1 batch
• 10 cups → x batches

Cross-multiply and solve for x:

• x = 10*1 / (2/3) = 10 * 3/2 = 15
