A recipe calls for 1/4 cup of flour.Carter only a measurement cup that holds 1/8 cup. How can carter measure the flour he needs for his recipe

Respuesta :

Carter needs an additional ⅛ cup.
⅛ + ⅛ = ¼

Answer:

Carter can measure the flour he needs for his recipe by filling his measurement cup twice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Carter has a smaller cup, he would have to fill his cup a number of times until the sum of the number of cups he has fill repeatedly adds up to the recipe requirement.

The number of times Carter would have to measure his cup with flour to get the recipe call may be computed by dividing the recipe call amount with the size of Carter's measurement cup

= 1/4 ÷ 1/8

= 1/4 × 8/1

= 2
