a recipe calls for 2 2/4 cups of raisins, but Julie only has a 1/4 cup measuring cup. How many 1/4 cups does Julie need to measure out 2 2/4 cups of raisins?
OK, So what I do first: How many times can this number go into 1? 1/4 goes evenly into 1 4 times. Now how many wholes numbers are there? 2. 2*4=8 Now how many fourths are left over? 2. Add them to 8. 10
