Gabrielle found a recipe for soup that uses 5/6 cup of milk if she only wants half the recipe how many cups of milk should she use ?

Answer 1

Hi Madisyn,

For one half of the recipe, you would need half of the milk.

To determine half of 5/6, you would multiply 5/6 by 1/2:

1 • 5 = 5

2 6 12

Gabrielle would need 5 cup of milk for half the recipe.

12
