Answer: 15 cups of frosting
Step-by-step explanation:
Melia is making small cakes and each of them will take 1 1/4 cups of frosting.
If she has to make 12 cakes, the amount of frosting needed would be the 12 cakes multiplied by 1 1/4.
First convert 1 1/4 to an improper fraction = 5/4
= 12 cakes * 5/4
= 15 cups of frosting
