a recipe calls for 3.75 cups of flour what is this amount as a mixed number in simplest form
Hence, the amount 3.75 could be represented as a mixed number in simplest form as:
\(3\dfrac{3}{4}\)
It is given that:
A recipe calls for 3.75 cups of flour.
Now this amount could also be written as:
\(3.75=\dfrac{375}{100}\)
( since we wrote this quantity in fraction form )
Now, this number could be written as:
\(\dfrac{375}{100}=\dfrac{15}{4}\)
now this proper fraction could be written in mixed form as follows:
\(\dfrac{15}{4}=3\dfrac{3}{4}\)
