beth is making brownies. She makes 3 batches of brownies on saturday and 4 batches on sunday. she uses 1/4 cup of butter in each batch. how much butter does beth use? explain

Respuesta :

Americ
STEP 1:
Tally up the total number of batches.
= 3 batches + 4 batches
= 7 batches

STEP 2:
Multiply the total number of batches by the amount of butter used in one batch (which is 1/4 cup).

= 7 batches * 1/4 cup per batch
= 7 * 1/4
= (7*1)/4
= 7/4
= 1 3/4 cup of butter

Beth used 1 3/4 cup of butter to make a total of 7 batches of cookies.

Hope this helps! :)
