Makiyla was making cupcakes. She added 1¾ cup of powdered sugar to the recipe. She gave the cupcakes to 5 friends. How much powered sugar was in each friend’s delivery?

Answer 1

To find out how much powdered sugar was in each friend's delivery, we need to divide the total amount of powdered sugar by the number of friends.

1¾ cups of powdered sugar is equal to 7/4 cups.

So, 7/4 cups of powdered sugar divided by 5 friends equals (7/4) / 5 = 7/20 cup.

Therefore, each friend's delivery contained 7/20 cup of powdered sugar.
