Answer: 14 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

sugar available is 7.33 cups, the 1/3 cup of sugar is no use due to the fact that you need 1/2 cup of sugar to make a single cupcake.

for Spanish readers: el azúcar disponible es de 7.33 tazas, el 1/3 de taza de azúcar es inútil debido al hecho de que necesitas 1/2 taza de azúcar para hacer un solo cupcake.

for French readers:

le sucre disponible est de 7,33 tasses, 1/3 de tasse de sucre n'est pas utile car vous avez besoin de 1/2 tasse de sucre pour faire un seul petit gâteau.

hopefully this helped! :D

Answer:

one cupcake= 1/2 cup of sugar

Total sugar availability: 7 and 1/3 or 7.33

Now go ahead and divide 7.33/.50

Notice that for every cup of sugar you can make exactly 2 cupcakes

Therefore you can make a total or 7*2=14 cupcakes

You are unable to utilize the rest of the 1/3 cup because you need 1/2 to make a singular cupcake
