Answer:
2 and two-eighths cups of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount of sugar needed for one cake is = three-eighths of a cup
Amount of sugar needed for 9 cakes = three-eighths * 9
3 * 9 = 18 8 1 = 8
18 8 into 3/8 of cup for cake is.....
By deducting 8 every time we fill a cup.
18 - 8= 10 (1 cup)
10 - 8= 2 (2nd cup)
third cup is two-eighths
therefore Meena will need 2 and two-eighths cup of sugar in all.
I hope this helps!
