    6 7/8

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since 1 cup of rice is added to 2 3/4 water

    We are to determine the Amount of water to be to 2 1/2 cups of rice

    Let the unknown number for water be x

    So let's solve

    1 cup of rice=11/4 water

    5/2 cup of rice=x water

    Cross multiply

    x=5/2*11/4

    x=55/8

    X=6 7/8

    Therefore, 6 7/8 water is needed
