Emi needs to calculate how many mini-pizzas she can make with 3 2/3 cups of cheese. Each mini-pizza uses 1/6 cup of cheese. She thinks she can make 10 pizzas. Is she correct?

Answer:

Yes, she is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Well let's start by making this into 6ths. 2/3 3x2=6 2x2=4 here we have 3 4/6. Now let's make this an improper fraction, 22/6 . divide 22/6 by 10 ending up with (22/6)/10 which leaves us with 0.36 Now we have to convert that into a fraction with the formula decimal/1 leaving us with .36/1 and now we make that 36/100 simplify that down all the way to 9/25. Is 9/25 greater than 1/6? yes. So she does have enough
No she can make 22 pizzas because 3 2/3 cups of cheese is equal to 3 4/6 which is 22/6 as an improper fraction. Since each pizza requires 1/6 cup of cheese subtract 1/6 from 22/6 until you can’t subtract anymore and you would subtract 22 times so she can make 22 mini pizzas.
