how many hours will it take Wendy to make 4 2/3 batches of cookies if she can make 1 1/3 batches in 1 hour

Why doesn't she make all of the cookies at once?

You probably need this calculation.

4.66667 * 1.3333 = 6.22 hours or about 6 1/3 hours or 6 hours and 20 minutes

To find out how many hours it will take Wendy to make 4 2/3 batches of cookies, we can divide the total number of batches by the number of batches she can make in one hour.

First, let's convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
4 2/3 = (3 * 4 + 2) / 3 = 14/3

Next, we divide the total number of batches by the number of batches she can make in one hour:
14/3 / 1 1/3 = 14/3 / 4/3

To divide fractions, we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction:
14/3 * 3/4 = 42/12 = 7/2

Therefore, it will take Wendy 7/2 or 3.5 hours to make 4 2/3 batches of cookies.

To find out how many hours it will take Wendy to make 4 2/3 batches of cookies, we need to divide the total number of batches by the number of batches she can make in one hour.

Let's start by converting the mixed numbers to improper fractions:
4 2/3 = (4 * 3 + 2) / 3 = 14/3

Now we can divide the total number of batches (14/3) by the number of batches made in one hour (1 1/3).

1 1/3 = (1 * 3 + 1) / 3 = 4/3

To divide fractions, we need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.

14/3 ÷ 4/3 = 14/3 * 3/4

Now, let's simplify the expression:

(14/3) * (3/4) = (14 * 3) / (3 * 4) = 42/12

We can simplify the fraction further. Both 42 and 12 can be divided by 6:

42/12 = (42 ÷ 6) / (12 ÷ 6) = 7/2

So, it will take Wendy 7/2 hours to make 4 2/3 batches of cookies.

Note: To convert the fraction 7/2 to a mixed number, divide 7 by 2. The quotient is the whole number (3) and the remainder is the numerator (1) with the denominator (2). Therefore, Wendy will take 3 and 1/2 hours to make 4 2/3 batches of cookies.

Thanks a lot this really helped my daughters
