Question

Luke is making pancakes. The recipe calls for 0.5 quart of milk and 2.5 cups of flour. He has 3/8 quart of milk and 18/8 cups of flour. Luke makes the recipe with the milk and flour that he has. Explain his error.

Answer 1

3/8 ÷ 0.5 = 3/4
2.5 ÷ 18/8 = 2/5

Since 3/4 > 2/5, he has too much milk. He'll get runny pancakes.

Answer 2

Luke's mistake is that he has to much milk instead of pancakes he will get runny pancakes.

Answer 3

Hi, steve. why would u want to possibly do 3/8 divided by 0.5 and also the same thing for 18/8 divided by 2.5.....

Answer 4

Steve ur absolutely right cuz I'm in the 6th grade and I didn't get it until I look on here thank u so much

Answer 5

This is the real answer to your problem it says on my notebook that luke is making pancakes the recipe calls for 0.5 quart of milk and 2.5 cups of flour he has 3/8 quart of milk and 18th eighths of cup of flour Luke makes the recipe with the milk and flour. He has explain his error so his error is that you have to convert 3/8 18/8 into a decimal for an example if you cannot convert 18/8 into a decimal you can automatically divided put 18 outside the house and put 8 inside
