Clayton is making pudding. He is making a triple batch. The recipe calls for
2 3/4 cups of milk. How many cups of milk will he need for a triple batch?
To find out how many cups of milk Clayton will need for a triple batch, we need to multiply the amount of milk needed for one batch (2 3/4 cups) by 3.
2 3/4 cups * 3 = 8 1/4 cups
Therefore, Clayton will need 8 1/4 cups of milk for a triple batch.
There is half of a gallon of milk in the refrigerator. Will that be enough milk for Clayton to make a triple batch of pudding?
To determine if half a gallon of milk is enough for a triple batch of pudding, we need to convert the measurement to cups.
Since there are 16 cups in a gallon, half a gallon is equal to 8 cups.
If Clayton needs 8 1/4 cups of milk for a triple batch, then half a gallon of milk (8 cups) will not be enough. He will need an additional 1/4 cup of milk.
Therefore, half a gallon of milk will not be enough for Clayton to make a triple batch of pudding.
