Chef Daniel had 431 ounces of chocolate frosting in his refrigerator. It takes 8 ounces of frosting to frost one cupcake. How many cupcakes can he frost

53 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the amount of frosting and divide by the amount needed per cupcake

431/8

53.875

We round down since we cannot frost part of a cupcake

53 cupcakes

53 cupcakes

Step-by-step explanation:

He has a total of 431 ounces and each cupcake needs 8 ounces of frosting. Therefore can divide the total amount of frosting (431 ounces) by the amount per cupcake (8 ounces)

total amount/ amount per cupcake

431 ounces/8 ounces

431/8

53.875

0.875, or a fraction/part of a cupcake can’t be frosted, so we should round down to the nearest whole number.

53

He can frost 53 cupcakes.

for the friend request.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.

answer: about 22.67
