Answer:

4.11 cups of skim milk

Step-by-step explanation:

You can get the answer by knowing the value of a cup in milliliters first.

  • 1 cup = 250 ml  

Let's convert 3.58 cups to ml by using the multiplication operation.

  • 3.58 x 250 = 895 ml

895 ml is 87% of skim milk.

Let's convert this into an equation. Let x be the amount of skim milk.

895 = 87% of x

895 = 0.87(x)

x = [tex]\frac{895}{0.87}[/tex]

x = 1,028.73 ml

Now that we know the amount of skim milk, let's convert it to cups.

1,028.73 ml ÷ 250 ml = 4.11 cups

Let's check.

  • 4.11 x 87% = 3.5757 or 3.58 cups (It's correct).
