Answer: Amy Doesn´t have enough flour left over to make 3 pots of potato soup.
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi, the complete question is:
Amy has 30 grams of flour. She puts 4 grams of flour in each pot of chowder that she makes. She puts 5 grams of flour in each pot of potato soup that she makes. She makes 4 pots of chowder. Does Amy have enough flour left over to make 3 pots of potato soup?
So, if she makes 4 pots of chowder and each one needs 4 grams of flour:
4 x 4 = 16 grams of flour
Now, to make 3 pots of potato soup, she needs 5 grams of flour for each pot.
3 x 5 = 15 grams of flour
Amy has 30 grams of flour; we have to subtract the grams used for the pots of chowder (16) to obtain the flour left.
30-16 = 14 grams of flour left
Since she needs 15 grams for the 3 pots of potato soup, Amy Doesn´t have enough flour left over to make 3 pots of potato soup.
Because 14 < 15
