A recipe for cookies requires 1/3 cup of butter Annalise wants to make 1/5 of the recipe how many cups of butter would Annelies used to make cookies?
Anonymous is correct.
To find out how many cups of butter Annalise would need to make 1/5 of the recipe, we can multiply the original amount of butter by 1/5.
Original amount of butter = 1/3 cup
Amount of butter for 1/5 of the recipe = (1/3) * (1/5) = 1/15 cup
Therefore, Annalise would need 1/15 cup of butter to make 1/5 of the recipe.
To find out how many cups of butter Annalise would use to make 1/5 of the recipe, we need to do some calculations.
First, we can determine the amount of butter required for the full recipe by multiplying the recipe measurement (1/3 cup) by the total number of parts in the recipe. Since the total number of parts in the recipe is 1, we multiply 1/3 cup by 1:
1/3 cup * 1 = 1/3 cup
This means that the full recipe requires 1/3 cup of butter.
To find out how much butter Annalise would use for 1/5 of the recipe, we need to divide the amount of butter required for the full recipe by the total number of parts Annalise wants to make (1/5):
1/3 cup / 1/5 = 1/3 cup * 5/1 = (1/3) * (5/1) = 5/15 = 1/3 cup.
Therefore, Annalise would use 1/3 cup of butter to make 1/5 of the recipe.
