Malik is using a cookbook to make a recipe, but he cannot find his measuring cups! He has, however, found a tablespoon. Inside the
back cover of the cookbook, it says that 1 cup = 16 tablespoons.
Determine how he could use the tablespoon to measure out the
following ingredients. Show each step of your solution.
• 2 cups of flour
• 12 cup sunflower seeds
• 194 cup of oatmeal in

a. Given a number of tablespoons, find the number of cups:

1. Since he needs 2 cups, he can use 2×16=32 tablespoons.

2.Since he needs 1/2 cup, he can use 1/2×16=8 tablespoons.

He needs 1 1/4 cups. 1 cup is 16 tablespoons. 1/4 cup is 1/4×16=4 tablespoons. So altogether he needs 16+4=20 tablespoons.Given a number of cups, find the number of tablespoons:

I already found that 20 tablespoons is 1 1/4 cups. So for 28 tablespoons I need an additional 8 tablespoons, or an additional 1/2 cup. 1 1/4+1/2=1 3/4, so 28 tablespoons gets him 1 3/4 cups. (Alternatively, we might say that 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×28=28/16, which we can rewrite as 1 12/16 or 1 3/4.)

I notice that to convert from tablespoons to cups, I always divide by 16. 6÷16=6/16, which we can write as 1 3/8. (Alternatively, 1 tablespoon is 1/16 cups. 1/16×6=6/16, which we can rewrite as 1 3/8.)
