Missy has 2 pounds of flour. she uses 1/3 of it in a recipe. how many pounds of flour does she use?

We know that Missy uses 1/3 of her flour in the recipe and that she has 2 pounds total of flour. To find out how much flour she used, we need to multiply 1/3 * 2. We do this because we are trying to find 1/3 of 2 pounds, and the word of refers to multiplication in math.

1/3 * 2 = 1/3 * 2/1 = 2/3

Therefore, Missy used 2/3 pounds of flour in her recipe.

Hope this helps!

i think there was a typo. you wrote pat brings 3 quarts of ice-cream to the party. each serving of ice-cream is 1 6 quart. how many total servings of ice-cream does pat bring to the party? i think the bold is supposed to be 1/6. so 1 quart of ice cream = 6 servings. 6 * 3 = 18.
