grace has 15 3/4 cups of food.

Question

she divides the plant food equally into 3 bags, she uses all the plant food in 1 of the bags to feed her potted flowers, she feeds each potted flower 3/4 cup of plant food, how many many potted flowers does grace feed?

Answer 1

15 3/4 = 63/4

 

(63/4)/3 = (63/4)(1/3) = 21/4

 

(21/4)/(3/4) = (21/4)(4/3) = 7

 

Grace feeds 7 potted flowers.
