To specify how many cups of flour should be used in a bread recipe, the number must be a non-negative number, as a negative amount or a non-whole number (like a fraction or a square root that is not a complete value) wouldn't make sense in this context of measuring ingredients.
Among the options you provided:
- −3 (negative) is not valid.
- square root of 3 (approximately 1.73) could be used, but it is not a simple whole number measure.
- 47 is valid (non-negative).
- Start Fraction 4 over 7 End Fraction (approximately 0.57) could be used, but it's a fraction.
- 234 is valid (non-negative).
The best answers for specifying how many cups of flour would be 47 and 234.
