Chen is baking muffins and banana bread for a brunch buffet. He needs 3 and one-fifth cups of flour to make the muffins and 3 and two-thirds cups of flour to make the banana bread. Which is the best estimate of the number of cups of flour that Chen needs to bake both recipes?

Options :

A. 6 cups of flour

B.7 cups of flour

C.8 cups of flour

D.9 cups of flour

B.7 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Cups of flour required to make muffins = 3 1/5

Cups of flour required to make banana = 3 2/3

Number of cups of flour required to make both recipe :

(cups of flour required to make muffins + cups of flour required to make bread)

(3 1/5 + 3 2/3) = 3+3+(1/5 + 2/3)

= 6 + (1/5 + 2/3) = (3 + 10)/15 = 6 + (13/15)

6 13/15 = 6.8666666

The best estimate is to round to the nearest whole number = 7

step-by-step explanation:

ok so im not 100% sure but you would start by adding 5.1t and 1.9t beacuse they have the same variable. that is 7t.   then add -3.6 + 1.2 which is -2.4

so then keep that as -2.4 + 7t. i apologize if this is incorrect. best luck on your test < 3
