Answer: B. 1 1/2 batches

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 4 1/2 to an improper fraction by multiplying 4 by 2 and adding 1. 4*2 = 8+1 = 9. Jerome made 9/2 batches of granola.

Multiply this by 1/3 to find out how much was given to his math teacher. 9/2 * 1/3 = 9/6. Convert to a mixed number to get 1 3/6, which can be reduced to 1 1/2 batches.
B
because 4.5 (4.5= 4 1/2) divided by three would be 1.5 (1.5= 1 1/2
