They should measure 6 1/4 cups.

Terry Blackburn · Answer 2

The correct answer I got was 22 cups. 11/2 : 1/4 is how you set it up. Then, you do KCF which stands for keep, change, flip. So, your new expression is 11/2 * 4/1. You cross reduce 4 & 2 which makes the new expression 11/1 * 2/1. 11 times 2 is 22/1 which still equals 22.
