Eugene‘s grandmother is teaching him how to make a salsa recipe. Each batch of salsa requires 1/4 a cup of red onions. If they have 1 1/2 cups of red onion, how many batches of salsa can they make?

Answer 1

Given:

Eugene‘s grandmother is teaching him how to make a salsa recipe.

Each batch of salsa requires 1/4 a cup of red onions.

If they have 1 1/2 cups of red onion

To find:

How many batches of salsa can they make?

Solution:

The total quantity of red onions they had = $1\frac{1}{2} \:cups = \frac{3}{2} \:cups$

The required quantity of red onions for making each batch of salsa = $\frac{1}{4} \:cup$

Now, using the unitary method we get,

If  $\frac{1}{4}$ a cup of red onions makes → 1 batch of salsa

Then, 1 cup of red onions will make →  $\frac{1}{\frac{1}{4} } = 4\:batches\:of \:salsa$

∴ $\frac{3}{2}$ cups of red onions will make =  $\frac{3}{2} \times 4= 3 \times 2 = 6 \:batches \:of \:salsa$

Thus, they can make 6 batches of salsa with 1 and a half cups of red onions.
