A pancake recipe calls for 0.75 cups of flour.linda is making 5 batches.she already has 2.5 cups of flour. How many more cups does she need?
(0.75 * 5) = 2.5 = ?
To find out how many more cups of flour Linda needs, we can subtract the amount she already has from the total amount required.
1. Start by multiplying the amount of flour required per batch by the number of batches to find the total amount of flour required:
0.75 cups * 5 batches = 3.75 cups
2. Next, subtract the amount Linda already has from the total amount required:
3.75 cups - 2.5 cups = 1.25 cups
Therefore, Linda needs 1.25 more cups of flour to complete the recipe.
