A recipe calls for Start Fraction 3 over 4 End Fraction cup of flour. How many cups of flour will you need to make three batches of the recipe?
A. 2 Start Fraction 3 over 4 End Fraction cups
B. 2 Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction cups
C. 2 Start Fraction 1 over 4 End Fraction cups
D. 2 Start Fraction 1 over 2 End Fraction cups3
To find the answer, we need to multiply the given fraction by 3 to account for the three batches:
Start Fraction 3 over 4 End Fraction x 3 = Start Fraction 9 over 4 End Fraction
So, for three batches of the recipe, we would need 2 and 1/4 cups of flour, which is equal to:
2 Start Fraction 1 over 4 End Fraction cups
Therefore, the answer is option C.
