Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of flour required to make a loaf of bread is 5 1/4.
Therefore to make 3 loaves of bread, one will require:
- 5 1/4 × 3 = 21/4 × 3
- = 63/4
- = 15 3/4
Steve has 20 cups, therefore what is left is:
- 20 - 15 3/4 = 4 1/4
★ 4 and 1/4 cups of flour is left, which is enough to make the cake that requires 3 3/4 cups.
