The teaspoon of baking soda require for a cake is 1 1/2.

Determine the number of cakes that can be made from 4 1/2.

[tex]\begin{gathered} n=\frac{4\frac{1}{2}}{1\frac{1}{2}} \\ =\frac{\frac{9}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}} \\ =\frac{9}{2}\cdot\frac{2}{3} \\ =3 \end{gathered}[/tex]

So 3 cakes can be formed from 4 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda.
