Two third of cookie recipe calls for three Fourths cup of sugar.how many cups are needed per recipe?
To calculate the number of cups of sugar needed for the recipe, we need to multiply two-thirds by three-fourths. Here's how you can solve it:
1. Convert the fraction two-thirds into decimal form. Divide the numerator (2) by the denominator (3): 2 ÷ 3 = 0.6667 (rounded to four decimal places).
2. Now, convert the fraction three-fourths into decimal form. Divide the numerator (3) by the denominator (4): 3 ÷ 4 = 0.75.
3. Multiply the two decimal values obtained in the previous steps: 0.6667 * 0.75 = 0.5 (rounded to four decimal places).
Therefore, you would need 0.5 cups of sugar for the recipe.
(2 / 3) * (3 / 2) = 1 ... the whole recipe
(3 / 4) * (3 / 2) = ?
