The recipe calls for 31/12 cups of peanuts. A total of 59/12 cups of peanuts and cereal are needed.
As per given information:
The recipe calls for 4 3/4 cups of cereal.
To find the amount of peanuts, convert both measurements to a common denominator (12 for easiest calculation):
4 3/4 cups = 19/4 cups
1 2/3 cups = 5/3 cups
Subtract the peanut amount from the cereal amount:
19/4 cups - 5/3 cups = 31/12 cups
Therefore, the recipe calls for 31/12 cups of peanuts.
To find the total, add the cereal and peanut amounts:
19/4 cups + 31/12 cups = 59/12 cups
