Elizabeth is baking chocolate chip cookies. A single batch uses 3/4 teaspoons of vanilla. If Elizabeth is mixing the ingredients for 5 batches at the same time, how many tablespoons will she use

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

If one batch uses 3/4 teaspoons of vanilla, five batches use 5 times 3/4 teaspoons of vanilla. The word "times" means multiplication. You need to multiply 5 by 3/4.

So I multiplied them and got 15/4, the next question would be how do I get that to a mixed number

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Now divide 15 by 4 using long division, and stop when you get a remainder. Don't go into decimals.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

K

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So I got 3 3/4 is that right

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

Correct.
