To find out how many cups of walnuts Brittany needs to make 27 batches of fudge, we need to multiply the amount of walnuts required for each batch by the number of batches.
The recipe calls for 2/3 cup of walnuts for each batch of fudge. So, we can set up the calculation as follows:
(2/3 cup/batch) * 27 batches
To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators (top numbers) of the fractions and multiply the denominators (bottom numbers) of the fractions. Therefore, the calculation becomes:
(2/3) * 27 = (2 * 27) / 3 = 54/3 = 18
So, Brittany needs 18 cups of walnuts to make 27 batches of fudge.
