Esteban is making turtle brownies the recipe calls for 3/4 bag or caramel squares one bag has 24 caramel squares how many caramel squares should he use for one batch?

So basically the question is asking, what is 3/4 of 24.

You have two options:

You can covert 3/4 to a decimal (which is. 75) and multiply 24 X. 75

or multiply 3/4 X 24. Remember you can write 24 as 24/1.

When multiplying fractions multiply the top numbers together, then multiply the bottom numbers together. so 3/4 X 24/1 = 72/4.

Now we simply: 72/4 = 18.

He should use 18 caramel squares for one batch.
