Respuesta :

She can make 30 batches

Answer: There are 30 batches of barbeque sauce that she can make by using the spice mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of tablespoons of her spice mixture = [tex]7\dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{15}{2}[/tex]

Number of tablespoons to make a batch of barbeque sauce = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex]

so, the number of batches of barbeque sauce would be

[tex]\dfrac{15}{2}\div \dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{15}{2}\times 4\\\\=15\times 2\\\\=30[/tex]

Hence, there are 30 batches of barbeque sauce that she can make by using the spice mixture.
