Can you simplify that
Answered by GPT 3.5
To double the recipe, you need to multiply 2 1/3 cups by 2.

2 1/3 cups * 2 = 4 2/3 cups

Now, you divide 4 2/3 cups of oatmeal into 14 servings to find out how much oatmeal is in each serving.

4 2/3 cups ÷ 14 servings = 4/3 cups per serving

Therefore, each serving has 4/3 cups of oatmeal.

Certainly! To simplify 4/3 cups, you can convert it to a mixed number or a decimal.

To convert it to a mixed number, divide 4 by 3:
4 ÷ 3 = 1 with a remainder of 1

So, the simplified form of 4/3 cups is 1 1/3 cups.

Therefore, each serving has 1 1/3 cups of oatmeal.
