Respuesta :
Sugar used for making cake is 7/4
Sugar used for making icing is 3/4
Total sugar used = 7/4 + 3/4 = (7+3)/4
= 10/4 = 5/2
Answer:
The number of cups used in all is [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Ron used [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] cups of sugar in making a cake and [tex]1\frac{3}{4}[/tex] cup in making the icing.
To find : How much sugar did he use in all ?
Solution :
Number of cups used in making a cake is [tex]1\frac{3}{4}=\frac{7}{4}[/tex]
Number of cups used in making the icing is [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
Total number of cups used in all is
[tex]T=\frac{7}{4}+\frac{3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]T=\frac{7+3}{4}[/tex]
[tex]T=\frac{10}{4}[/tex]
[tex]T=\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, The number of cups used in all is [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]
