A certain laundry detergent recommends \frac{1}{4}
a cup of detergent for a \frac{1}{2}
a load of clothes. How much detergent is recommended for 4 loads of clothes? in a table

Respuesta :

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] a cup detergent for [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] a load of clothes would mean for each full load, it would take [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] a cup of detergent.

Thus if you have 4 load of clothes, which is 8 half loads. You can take that 8 half loads and multiply [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] by 8. This gives you 2 cups of detergent.
