Daniel is baking a cake for Aaron's birthday. The recipe requires 2 1/2 cups of butter, 1/3 cups of brown sugar, and 1/2 cups of baking powder. What is the total amount of ingredients in cups if Daniel makes the cake twice as large as the recipe calls for?

Answer

4 6/12 or 2 3/4 cups of total ingredients

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 2 1/2 cups of butter, 1/3 cups of brown sugar, and 1/2 cups of baking powder.

You'd want to make the denominators the same numbers so it would be easier to divide.

So I multiplied 2 1/2 times 3, 1/3 times 2, and 1/2 times 3.

Then all the numbers would have a denominator of 6. Don't multiply the whole numbers or the numerators. Just the denominator.

''THE NUMBERS'' would change to 2 1/6, 1/6, and 1/6.

If I were to add that it would be 2 3/6.

BUT, You need to multiply by 2 after because it says in the question "How many ingredients in cups will Daniel make the cake twice as large".

What is 2 3/6 times 2 =  4 6/12 total.

If it says to simplify the answer. It would be "'2 3/4 total'' or both answers are correct
