Answer 1

Given :- Rajiv used 3/4 of a bag of sugar to make cookies. With the sugar he has left over, he will make 3 cakes.

What fraction of the original bag of sugar will he use for each cake ?

Solution :-

→ Left sugar = 1 - (3/4) = (1/4)

now,

→ with (1/4) sugar Rajiv makes = 3 cakes .

then,

→ with whole sugar Rajiv make = 4 * 3 = 12 cakes.

therefore,

→ Sugar required for each cake = (1/12) (Ans.)

Hence, Rajiv used (1/12) fraction of the original bag of sugar for each cake .
