Maritza · Answer 1

b

Step-by-step explanation:

15.25/4 = 3.8125 per bach

8/3.8125 = roughly 2 so b is it

Maggie Reeves · Answer 2

1 Batch ... i think.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, like, half of 15 is 7.5. That makes two batches. I don't think we're supposed to say 0.5=1 batch here, cause that is unrealistic.
