Question

1) Cindy needs 5/6 cup of almond milk to make six madeleines. She bought a quart of almond milk and baked two dozens of madeleines. How many cups of almond milk did she have left? ( a dozen= a group of 12; 1 quart equals 4 cups)

Answer 1

First, find out how many cups of almond milk are needed to make one madeleine:
5/6 cup ÷ 6 = 1/6 cup of almond milk per madeleine

Since Cindy baked two dozens of madeleines, she made a total of 24 madeleines:
2 dozens x 12 madeleines/dozen = 24 madeleines

Now, find out how many cups of almond milk were used to make the 24 madeleines:
24 madeleines x 1/6 cup/madeleine = 4 cups of almond milk used

Since Cindy started with a quart of almond milk, which equals 4 cups, she must have used all of it:
4 cups (original amount) - 4 cups (used) = 0 cups of almond milk left

Answer: Cindy had 0 cups of almond milk left.
