Arecipe that makes 6 servings requires 1& 1/4 cups of flour. how much flour (f) would be needed to make the recipe for 1/2 the number of servings?

equation:



can someone me

For this, I would turn your mixed number into an improper fraction.

whole•denominator+numerator over the denominator
1(4)=4+1=5. So 5/4.

Now we want to cut it in half so we're going to multiply by a half: 5/4 x 1/2=5/8

The equation would be: 1&1/4 (5/4) divided by x amount of flour equals 1/2.
OR
(5/4)/x=1/2
