Question

the baker has 6 blocks of butter she cuts them into 3/4 how many 3/4 can she get?

Answer 1

Answer

Total blocks of butter = 4

If each block of butter weight 1 pound, then, the 4 blocks of butter = 4 pounds

Also, she cut 1 block into 3 blocks of butter, then, the number of blocks of butter now = 12

1/3 pieces of blocks of butter= 12/3 = 4 piece of block of butter

1/3 pound pieces of butter = 4/3 = 1.33 pound

1 piece block of butter = 1 pound = 3 smaller unit piece blocks of butter
