The correct question is
<span>Javier is making a cake for a party. The recipe calls for 2 3/4 cups of flour, but he wants to triple the recipe. He guessed and put in 7 cups of flour. How many more cups of flour should he have used?

we know that
2 3/4 cups of flour------> (2*4+3)/4----> 11/4 cups
if he </span>wants to triple the recipe------> 3*(11/4)----> 33/4 ----> 8 1/4 cups required

8 1/4-7=1 1/4 cups

the answer is
1 1/4 cups

Imagine a cake. OK? Now divide the cake in 2 equal pieces, each one is ½ of the cake.
Now divide each piece in 2 halves; each one is ¼ of the cake. Witch is largest? 1:2=0,5; 1:4=0,25. 0,5>0,25.

5:6=0,83333
29:36=0,80555
0,83>0,80 so 5/6 is the largest.

Do this for each group.

a.5/6
b.5/8
c.19/45
d.13/14
e.7/11
f.1/2
