You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since you making \"4 times\" the recipe, you need to multiply 3 2/3 by 4.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "First convert the mixed number 3 2/3 to an improper fraction. \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "3 2/3 = 11/3\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "So 3 2/3 * 4 = (11/3) * 4 = 44/3 (Tablespoons).\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Now, convert the improper fraction 44/3 to a mixed number. 44 divided by 3 = 14 and remainder of 2. So 44/3 = 14 2/3 (Tablespoons)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
