Mito bakes biscuits. He uses 1/4 cup of flour to coat the countertop and the rolling pin. He also uses 2 1/2 cups of flour for each batch of biscuits he bakes. If he uses 7 3/4 cups of flour in all, how many batches of biscuits does he bake. Write and solve an equation

3  batches of biscuits.

Step-by-step explanation:

For one batch of biscuits, Mito uses 1/4 cup of flour to coat the countertop and the rolling pin.He also uses 2 1/2 cups of flour for each batch of biscuits he bakes

When he uses 7 3/4 cups of flour

Let the number of batches = x

convert the given data to decimal:

2 1/2 = 2.5   and   1/4 = 0.25    and  7 3/4 = 7.75

So, the equation representing the problem is:

2.5 x + 0.25 = 7.75

Solve for x

2.5x = 7.75 - 0.25 = 7.5

x=7.5/2.5 = 75/25 = 3

So, the number of batches of biscuits = 3 batches.

is only a line? i think so

4

step-by-step explanation:

6 (donuts) divided by 3 is 2.

so 2/3 means 2 times 2, which is 4/6.

you get two and your friend gets four.
