Should Laura add more chocolate powder to make the exact recipe, or did she go over and by what amount?

Nah, don't worry about it.

I just thought I'd let you know what it looks like for us. :)

Mari i cant see the pics!pls can u do something about this because or else i wouldnt be able to help you!

their is no pictures?

Then whatever they r i just cant see them , the main bits which are showing the amount or numbers!

OK....

1 cup has 128 grams

So......1/2 of a cup must have half of that = 64 grams

If she used 2/3 of a cup and only need 1/2 of a cup, what would be the correct answer???

Can you do this one???  (You won't learn anything if I just give you the answers.....)

were the pics visible to u CPhill!

I don't think we need any pics, rosala !!!!

Read it again, and see if you know how to find the answer......

I think yes, rosala. Just click on them. Maybe that can help.

She went over by  of a cup

so thats the view im getting to see!

Yeah. Me too. I can't see a THING!

So thats why i was asking CPhill how was it visible to him!

Yeah. That is true.

Wait a sec, guys......

She needed 1/2 of a cup and she used 2/3 of a cup.........ask yourselves the question, first....did she go over???  How would I find out??? 

(We don't need any pics !!!)

Hmm. That is confusing. You are right, CPhill!

Yes your right CPhill!i think theres a problem in the question only!

OK......she needed only 1/2 of a cup......but she used 2/3 of a cup.....is 2/3 larger or smaller than 1/2???

What's the answer???  (rosala....you were close to the answer, but you made a small mistake...)

So , i know menatlly that 2/3 is more than 1/2 of a cup but for a proof lets check

1*3/2*3= 3/6

2*2/3*2 = 4/6

so 4/6 or 2/3 is greater!

OK rosala.......how much did she go over if she used 4/6 of a cup and only needed 1/2 (or 3/6) of a cup ????

I GOT IT!she went over 1/6 of a cup!am i correct CPhill !

....And you did it all with no help from any "pictures," either   !!!!

Pretty easy, once you saw it, huh???

Very good !!!!

Thanks!i didnt know it was that easy!Thanks fir the help!

thumbs up from me!

CPhill, I think the problem was that some of the fractions mari used are displayed as pictures for whatever reason.

I'm having this same problem. This is what the question looks like to me:

I'm not seeing any pics, ND........!!!!!

Maybe there's something wrong with MY computer !!!!

Sorry....I ddidn't realize it was displaying like that for you guys....apologies

 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AH....I see it now....no wonder you guys were having trouble!!!!

Yeah !for me too!this has been happening with most of the questions!i think!but i can't figure out the actual problem!!!!
