A cherry pie recipe requires 3/4 cups of sugar for the filling and 1/2 cup of sugar for the topping. Natalya has 71/2 cups of sugar. How many pies can she make? Write an equation with a variable and solve

Respuesta :

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

Each pie requires 3/4 + 1/2 = 3/4 + 2/4 = 5/4 cups of sugar.

So, letting N = the number of pies that Natalya can make, we have that

N = [ (71/2) / (5/4) ] = [ 28.4 ] = 28, where [ . ] is the greatest integer function.
