Layla is making fruit salad. She uses 1 1/2 cups of oranges, 2/3 cups of apples, and 3/4 cups of grapes. How many cups of fruit does she use? ( 1 point )
3 1/9
3 7/12
2 1/9
2 11/12
To find how many cups of fruit Layla uses, we can add the quantities of each fruit:
1 1/2 cups of oranges = 1.5 cups
2/3 cups of apples = 0.67 cups
3/4 cups of grapes = 0.75 cups
Total cups of fruit = 1.5 + 0.67 + 0.75 = 2.92 cups
Therefore, Layla uses approximately 2.92 cups of fruit.
None of the given options of 3 1/9, 3 7/12, 2 1/9, or 2 11/12 are equivalent to 2.92.
