Q. Henry has 33 cups of frosting to use for 2828 cupcakes. He is extra careful to make sure each cupcake gets the same amount of frosting. How much frosting does each cupcake get? Write your answer as a proper fraction or mixed number. \newline____ cups
  1. Identify Total Frosting: Step 11: Identify the total amount of frosting and the number of cupcakes to determine how much frosting each cupcake should get.\newlineCalculation: Divide the total cups of frosting by the number of cupcakes.\newline33 cups ÷\div 2828 cupcakes.
  2. Calculate Frosting per Cupcake: Step 22: Perform the division to find the amount of frosting per cupcake.\newlineCalculation: 3÷28=0.10714285713 \div 28 = 0.1071428571 cups.\newlineTo express this as a fraction, it's approximately 328\frac{3}{28} cups.
