Julio must use 3 tablespoons of butter in his biscuit recipe for 2 batches of biscuits. He used 18 ounces of butter today. How many batches of biscuits did he cook? Four tablespoons is approximately one ounce.
4 tbs per ounce, he used 18 ounces, therefor, he used 18 ounces × 4 tbs per ounce = 72 tbs of butter. If 3 tbs makes 2 batches then 72 tbs would make (72tbs ÷ 3tbs per 2 batches) = 48 batches
