Respuesta :

Answer:  Amy Doesn´t have enough flour left over to make 3 pots of potato soup.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, the complete question is:

Amy has 30 grams of flour. She puts 4 grams of flour in each pot of chowder that she makes. She puts 5 grams of flour in each pot of potato soup that she makes. She makes 4 pots of chowder. Does Amy have enough flour left over to make 3 pots of potato soup?

So, if she makes 4 pots of chowder and each one needs 4 grams of flour:

4 x 4 = 16 grams of flour

Now, to make 3 pots of potato soup, she needs 5 grams of flour for each pot.

3 x 5 = 15 grams of flour

Amy has 30 grams of flour; we have to subtract the grams used for the pots of chowder (16) to obtain the flour left.

30-16 = 14 grams of flour left

Since she needs 15 grams for the 3 pots of potato soup, Amy Doesn´t have enough flour left over to make 3 pots of potato soup.

Because 14 < 15
