Answer 2

1 serving = 3/4 of a cup

Answer 3

we need to get the right side of 3/4 of a cup to 13 cups, how do we do this?

Answer 4

idk

Answer 5

(3/4)x = 13

3x = 13*4

3x = 52

x = 52/3

we need to multiply both sides by 52/3

Answer 6

1 serving = 3/4 of a cup

(52/3)*1 serving = (52/3)*3/4 of a cup

52/3 servings = 13 cups

(51+1)/3 servings = 13 cups

51/3+1/3 servings = 13 cups

17+1/3 servings = 13 cups

17 & 1/3 servings = 13 cups
