Idon't get this problem. lila decided to make kore baked goods for the bake sale. she used 1 / 8 lb less flour to make bread than to make cookies. she used 1/4 lb more flour to make cookies than to make brownies. if she used 1/2 lb of flour to make bread , how much flour did she use to make the brownies?

Start by taking the information we know, and write equations to represent the realationships:

1) "1/8 lbs less flour to make bread than to make cookies"         
     

2) "1/4 lb more flour to make cookies than to make brownies:
     

3) "she used 1/2 lb of flour ro make bread"
   

From here you can solve for using back substitution.
