a. What fraction of the butter that she should

have used did Susan actually use? Make a

math drawing to help you solve this problem

and explain your solution.

b. Describe the different unit amounts that occur

in part (a). Discuss how one amount can be de-

scribed with two different fractions depending

on what the unit amount is taken to be.

For what value of (y) is 3^3/3^y =1/9
