To determine how many 1/4 cups Julie needs to measure out 2 2/4 cups of raisins, you need to find the equivalent fraction of 2 2/4 cups in terms of 1/4 cups.
Step 1: Convert the mixed number 2 2/4 cups to an improper fraction.
2 2/4 cups = (2 * 4 + 2) / 4 cups = 10/4 cups
Step 2: Simplify the improper fraction, if possible.
10/4 cups = 5/2 cups
Step 3: Find the number of 1/4 cups that is equivalent to 5/2 cups.
Since 1/4 cup is the measuring unit, we divide the total cups needed (5/2) by 1/4:
(5/2) ÷ (1/4) = (5/2) * (4/1) = 10/1 = 10
Julie needs 10 of the 1/4 cups to measure out 2 2/4 cups of raisins.
(10/4) / (1/4)
(10/4) * 4 = 40/4 = 10
