Step 1
Given problem is :
Genise is making cookies. She needs 123 cups of flour for one batch, but she wants to make 212 batches. Write an equation that can be used to find how many cups of flour Genise will need.
Step 2
x represents the amount of flour she will need in cups.
To solve, convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions and multiply...
123 becomes 53
213 becomes 73
Now we have
(53)(73)=x
359=x
359 is 389 as a mixed number
