Recipe calls for 2/3 a cup of sugar per batch. elena used 5 1/3 cups of sugar to make multiple batches of cookies. how many batches did she make? can you show me the steps to get the answer?

you,

She made 8 batches

5 1/3= 16/3

8 Batches

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple. Since it takes 2/3 of a cup for one batch, we divide 5 1/3 by 2/3, wich equals 8.

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
