In a recipe, you use 1.5 cups of sugar for every 4 cups of flour. How much sugar would you need if you have 12
cups of flour?

0.85 or 85%

step-by-step explanation:

1) divide 23 by 27

2) round the decimal to the nearest 10

3) so your answer would be 0.85 or 85%

one fourth of 9% = 2.25%

gavin is correct in saying : the equivalent quarterly interest rate would be

2.25%.
