How many 1/4 cup servings are in a container of 4 1/2 cup servings?
there are clearly 4 servings per cup
thus, 2 servings in 1/2 cup
so, 4 1/2 cups make 4*4 + 2 = 18 servings
or, (9/2)÷(1/4) = (18/4)÷(1/4) = 18
To find the number of 1/4 cup servings in a container of 4 1/2 cup servings, we need to convert the measurements to a common fraction.
First, let's convert 4 1/2 cup to an improper fraction.
4 1/2 can be written as 9/2.
Now, let's convert 1/4 cup to an improper fraction.
1/4 remains as 1/4.
Next, we can find the number of 1/4 cup servings by dividing the total amount of 4 1/2 cup servings by the amount of 1/4 cup per serving.
Therefore, 9/2 divided by 1/4 is equal to (9/2) ÷ (1/4).
To divide fractions, we need to multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
So, (9/2) ÷ (1/4) can be rewritten as (9/2) × (4/1).
Multiplying the numerators and the denominators, we get (9 × 4) / (2 × 1) = 36/2 = 18.
Therefore, there are 18 1/4 cup servings in a container of 4 1/2 cup servings.
To find out how many 1/4 cup servings are in a container of 4 1/2 cup servings, we need to perform some calculations.
First, let's convert the mixed number 4 1/2 to an improper fraction.
4 1/2 = (4 * 2 + 1) / 2 = 9/2
Now, we want to divide this value by 1/4 since we are looking for 1/4 cup servings.
(9/2) / (1/4) = (9/2) * (4/1) = (9 * 4) / (2 * 1) = 36/2
Finally, we simplify the fraction 36/2.
36/2 = 18/1
So, there are 18 servings of 1/4 cup in a container of 4 1/2 cup servings.
