Answer:

15 batches of cookies

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find out how many third cups do into 5 cups. We can do this by 5 ÷ 1/3

When dividing fractions, use KFC:

  • Keep the first fraction the same
  • Flip the second fraction
  • Change the sign from ÷ to ×

Therefore, 5 ÷ 1/3 = 5 × 3/1 which is 15 batches of cookies

Hope this helps!
