Sister act baked muffins she added 1/2 cup of sugar to the muffin batter and then divided the batter equally into 12 sections of the muffin pan what fraction of a cup of sugar will each muffin contain

Respuesta :

Answer:

Each muffin will contain [tex]\frac{1}{24} \ cups[/tex] of sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sugar content in the batter = [tex]\frac{1}{2}\ cup[/tex]

Number of sections batter was divided  = 12

We need to find the fraction of a cup of sugar content in each muffin.

Solution:

Now according to given data Batter was divided in 12 sections of the pan.

So we can say the number of muffins baked = 12

Now we know that;

Sugar content in each muffin can be calculated by dividing Sugar content in the batter with the number of sections batter was divided.

framing in equation form we get;

sugar content in each muffin = [tex]\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{12} = \frac{1}{2\times 12}=\frac{1}{24} \ cups[/tex]

Hence Each muffin will contain [tex]\frac{1}{24} \ cups[/tex] of sugar.
