Question

Robin has 1⁄2 cup of icing. She uses the same amount of icing to cover 18 cupcakes.

Answer 1

To find out how much icing she uses for each cupcake, we can divide the total amount of icing (1/2 cup) by the number of cupcakes:

1/2 cup / 18 cupcakes = 1/36 cup per cupcake

So, Robin uses 1/36 cup of icing to cover each cupcake.
