if a recipe calls for 3 1/4 cups of flour, how many cups is 1/4 of this recipe
Yez the first dude is right but im also like 12 years late lmao
uh yeah
To find out how many cups 1/4 of the recipe is, we need to divide the original measurement by 4. Here's how you can do it:
1. Start with the original amount - 3 1/4 cups of flour.
2. To divide a mixed number like 3 1/4 by a whole number (4), we need to convert it to an improper fraction. Multiply the whole number (3) by the denominator (4), and add the numerator (1). In this case, it would be (3 * 4) + 1 = 13.
3. Now, we have 13/4 cups of flour as the original amount.
4. To find 1/4 of this amount, divide the numerator (13) by 4. 13/4 ÷ 4 = 13/4 × 1/4 = 13/16.
5. The result is 13/16 cups of flour, which is equivalent to 1/4 of the original recipe.
Therefore, 1/4 of the recipe is 13/16 cups of flour.
3 1/4 = 13/4
(13/4)* (1/4)= 13/16
