Question

If you only have a 1 3 cup measuring cup and a recipe calls for 5 1 3 cups of flour, how many 1/3 cups would you need to use?

Answer 1

Answer:

You would need 16 1/3 cups!

Step-by-step explanation:

I used an equation, but you could also use mental conversions! :

1/3c = 5 1/3

(1/3c)3 = (5 1/3)3 (multiply each side by 3 (3/1))

3c /3 = (48) /3 (divide each side by 3)

c = 16

:)

(c = cups!)

Answer 2

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

1/3 × 5 is 15 + another 1/3 is 16.
