Lenora is using the recipe of 1/3 cup vegetable oil, 1/4 cup vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. She wants to make 20 batches of the recipe. How much vegetable oil and how much vinegar does she need?
20*(1/3)= 6 2/3
20*(1/4)= 5
20 times 2/3= 13 1/3
20 times 1/4= 5
To determine the amount of vegetable oil and vinegar Lenora needs to make 20 batches of the recipe, we first need to find the total amount required for one batch.
In one batch of the recipe, Lenora needs 1/3 cup of vegetable oil and 1/4 cup of vinegar.
To calculate the amount needed for 20 batches, multiply the quantities by 20:
For vegetable oil:
1/3 cup x 20 = 20/3 cups = 6 and 2/3 cups
For vinegar:
1/4 cup x 20 = 20/4 cups = 5 cups
So, Lenora needs 6 and 2/3 cups of vegetable oil and 5 cups of vinegar to make 20 batches of the recipe.
20 * (1/3) = ?
20 * (1/4) = ?
