Question

You are eating 3/4 cup of ice cream, 1/8 cup of chocolate syrup, and one sixteenths cup of cherries. How many total cups is your dessert?

Answer 1

3/4=ice cream

1/8=chocolate syrup

1/16=cherries

Total=3/4+1/8+1/16

$\frac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 4} + \frac{1 \times 2}{8 \times 2} + \frac{1 \times 1}{16 \times 1} \\ \frac{12 + 2 + 1}{16 } = \frac{15}{6}$

Total cups =15/6=2.5 cups.
