Hi so the problem is a recipe calls for a total of 3 2/3 cups of flour and sugar. If the recipe calls for 1/4 cup of sugar, how much flour is needed 1. 3 1/12
2. 3 1/4
3. 5/12
4. 3 11/12

3 5/12 cups of flour are needed

Step-by-step explanation:

The flour-sugar total is 3 2/3 cups, of which 1/4 cup is sugar.  So, to find the amount of flour used, we subtract 1/4 cup (sugar) from the total (3 2/3 cups):

 11       1

-              where 11/3 is the improper fraction form of 3 2/3

   3      4

The LCD is 12.  Rewriting this subtraction using the LCD, we get:

44     3

- = 41/12 (cups) = 3 5/12 cups

12     12

3 5/12 cups of flour are needed

answer: 8

step-by-step explanation: if you add the possibilities 5 different flavor and 3 different sizes 5+3=8
