Question

the recipe requires 2 3/4 cups of flour. usha has 1 1/4 cups of flour. how many more cups of flour does she need?

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

$requirement \: = 2 \frac{3}{4} \\ usha \: has \: = 1 \frac{1}{4 }$

$needs \: = 2 \frac{3}{4} - 1 \frac{1}{4 }$

$needs \: = \frac{11}{4} - \frac{5}{4 }$

$needs \: = \frac{11 - 5}{4}$

$needs \: = \frac{6}{4}$

$needs \: = 1\frac{2}{4}$
