Hazel is making chocolate milk. She added 1/4 cup chocolate syrup to 2/3 cup milk.How much chocolate milk did Hazel make?
1/4 = 3/12
2/3 = 8/12
To figure out how much chocolate milk Hazel made, we need to add together the amounts of chocolate syrup and milk she used.
First, let's find a common denominator for 1/4 and 2/3, which is 12.
To convert 1/4 to twelfths, we can multiply the numerator and denominator by 3: (1/4) * (3/3) = 3/12.
To convert 2/3 to twelfths, we can multiply the numerator and denominator by 4: (2/3) * (4/4) = 8/12.
Now we can add the converted fractions: 3/12 + 8/12 = 11/12.
So, Hazel made 11/12 cup of chocolate milk.
