Zoe has 5 lb of potatoes. She has multiple recipes that require 3/4 lb of potatoes. How many recipes will she be able to make?

6

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer, you must divide the amount of potatoes you have by the amount required for each recipe.

5 / 3/4

Follow these steps to do so

5/1 / 3/4 make 5 into a fraction

5/1 * 4/3 multiply by the reciprocal

5*4=20 1*3=3 multiply then numerators and the denominators

20/3 put the products back into the fraction

6 2/3 convert to a mixed number

If Zoe only wants to make full recipes she can make 6, but if she doesn't mind making partial recipes then the answer is 6 2/3
