Mariana's bread recipe calls for 23 of a cup of flour. Which amount of flour is equivalent?(1 point) Responses 33 of a cup 3 thirds of a cup 46 of a cup 4 sixths of a cup 13 of a cup 1 third of a cup 56 of a cup

1 answer

To find an equivalent amount for \( \frac{2}{3} \) of a cup of flour, let's analyze the given options:

  1. \( \frac{3}{3} \) of a cup - This is equivalent to 1 cup.
  2. \( \frac{4}{6} \) of a cup - This simplifies to \( \frac{2}{3} \) (since \( 4 \div 2 = 2 \) and \( 6 \div 2 = 3 \)).
  3. \( \frac{1}{3} \) of a cup - This is one-third of a cup.
  4. \( \frac{5}{6} \) of a cup - This is not equivalent to \( \frac{2}{3} \).
  5. \( \frac{6}{5} \) of a cup - This is greater than 1 cup.
  6. \( \frac{3}{2} \) of a cup - This is also greater than 1 cup.

The correct equivalent amount of flour that is equal to \( \frac{2}{3} \) of a cup is:

  • \( \frac{4}{6} \) of a cup.

So the answer is 4 sixths of a cup.
