Answer:
Let's solve the two problems:
Problem 1: Honey
To find the number of cups of honey, divide the total weight (16 ounces) by the weight per cup (12 ounces).
16 ounces ÷ 12 ounces/cup = 1.33 cups
Problem 2: Nutmeg
First, find the weight of 1 tablespoon of nutmeg:
1 ounce ÷ 4¼ tablespoons = 1 ounce ÷ 4.25 tablespoons ≈ 0.235 ounces/tablespoon
Since 1 cup is equal to 16 tablespoons, multiply the weight per tablespoon by 16:
0.235 ounces/tablespoon × 16 tablespoons/cup ≈ 3.76 ounces/cup
The final answer is:
1.33 cups of honey and 3.76 ounces of nutmeg per cup.
