henry is following the recipe card to make a cake. he had 95 cups of flour. how many cakes can henry make?

flour needed for each cake
2 2/9 cups of batter
1/2 cup for topping

Respuesta :

First, we add up the amount of flour needed for each cake by the equation,

    total flour needed = flour need for batter + flour needed for topping

Substituting,
   total flour needed = 2 2/9 cups + 1/2 cup = 49/18 cups

Then, we divide the total amount of flour by the answer obtained above to determine the number of cakes that can be made. 

    number of cakes = total amount of flour / total flour needed per cake
      number of cakes = 95 cups / (49/18) = 34.89 cakes

Hence, the number of cakes that can be produced is only 34.

Answer:

the number of cakes that can be produced is only 34.  

Step-by-step explanation:

   total flour needed = flour need for batter + flour needed for topping

,

  total flour needed = 2 2/9 cups + 1/2 cup = 49/18 cups

after, we divide the total amount of flour by the answer obtained above to determine the number of cakes that can be made.

   number of cakes is the total amount of flour  needed per cake

     number of cakes is  95 cups / (49/18) = 34.89 cakes

the number of cakes that can be produced is only 34.
