Answer:
She can make [tex]\frac{33}{12}[/tex] batches.
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.
We have that:
For each batch of pancakes, 1/3 cups of milk are needed. Now, she has 11/12 cups of milk, so how many batches can she make?
1 batch - 1/3 cups
x batches - 11/12 cups
Applying cross multiplication:
[tex]\frac{x}{3} = \frac{11}{12}[/tex]
[tex]12x = 33[/tex]
[tex]x = \frac{33}{12}[/tex]
She can make [tex]\frac{33}{12}[/tex] batches.
