Alright, let's break down the problem step by step.
a. How many 30 gram measures can Miss Molly get from the jar?
1. We know that the total amount of flour in the jar is 200 grams.
2. Each measure size is 30 grams.
3. To find out how many full 30 gram measures she can get from the jar, we divide the total flour by the measure size.
4. When we divide 200 grams by 30 grams per measure, we get:
[tex]\( \frac{200}{30} = 6 \)[/tex] full measures (with some remainder).
So, Miss Molly can get 6 full 30 gram measures from the jar.
b. How much flour will be left over?
1. Next, we need to find out how much flour remains after taking out the full measures.
2. We take the total flour (200 grams) and subtract the amount used in the full measures.
3. From part (a), we found that Miss Molly can take out 6 full measures. Therefore, she uses:
[tex]\( 6 \times 30 \)[/tex] grams [tex]\( = 180 \)[/tex] grams.
4. The remaining flour is then calculated by subtracting 180 grams from 200 grams:
[tex]\( 200 - 180 = 20 \)[/tex] grams.
So, after taking out 6 full 30 gram measures, Miss Molly will have 20 grams of flour left over.
In summary:
- Miss Molly can get 6 full 30 gram measures from the jar.
- There will be 20 grams of flour left over.
