Carl needs a total of 2 and 2/3 cups of flour to make a cake. He already has 3/8 cup of flour. To find out how much more flour he needs, we can subtract the amount he already has from the total amount needed. When we subtract 3/8 from 2 and 2/3, we get 2 and 7/24. Therefore, Carl needs 2 and 7/24 cups more flour to make the cake.Rate this question:
