Explanation:

Problem 5a

Step1: Understand the problem

A triple batch has 3 cups of pancake mix. We need to find the amount for one batch.

Step2: Divide by 3

To find the amount for one batch, we divide the triple batch amount by 3. So, $3 \div 3 = 1$.

Step1: Understand the problem

A triple batch has 2 cups of milk. We need to find the amount for one batch.

Step2: Divide by 3

To find the amount for one batch, we divide the triple batch amount by 3. So, $2 \div 3 = \frac{2}{3}$.

Step1: Find the cost per roll

A dozen (12) rolls cost $15, so the cost per roll is $15 \div 12 = 1.25$ dollars per roll.

Step2: Calculate cost for 6 rolls

Multiply the cost per roll by 6: $1.25 \times 6 = 7.5$.

Answer:

1 cup of pancake mix.
