Answer:

The statement: Will Fredericks recipe make 10 loaves? Is:

  • True.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must add the cups of total flour to have a decimal or fractional value.

  • Total cups of flour: [tex]17+\frac{1}{3}=\frac{52}{3}[/tex]

And the cups of flour in Frederick's recipe.

  • Cups of flour in Frederick's recipe: [tex]1+\frac{5}{8}= \frac{13}{8}[/tex]

In the end, you must divide the total flour in the flour of Frederick's recipe to obtain the number of loaves.

  • Loaves with Frederick's recipe: [tex]\frac{52}{3} /\frac{13}{8}= \frac{32}{3}[/tex] or [tex]10.666667[/tex]

How you can see, with Frederick's recipe, he can make 10 completed loaves, and there is a little flour left over.
