Solve: A recipe for small, whole-grain bread loaves uses 2/3 of a cup of flour for each loaf. Mikhail wants to make 7 loaves. How much flour will he need?
To find out how much flour Mikhail needs, we need to multiply the amount of flour needed for each loaf (2/3 cup) by the number of loaves he wants to make (7 loaves).
2/3 cup x 7 loaves = 14/3 cups of flour
Therefore, Mikhail will need 14/3 cups of flour.
