The text states that &#8220;They&#8217;ll each want a quarter of a cupcake.&#8221; Since there are two friends, we multiply 2 by 1\/4. This gives us a total of 2\/4 of a cupcake for the friends. The fraction 2\/4 can be simplified to its equivalent, 1\/2. Therefore, the two friends together will share half a cupcake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To find the total number of cupcakes for the entire order, we add the family&#8217;s portion and the friends&#8217; portion together. We add the one and a half cupcakes (3\/2) for the family to the half cupcake (1\/2) for the friends. Adding 3\/2 and 1\/2 gives us 4\/2. When we simplify the fraction 4\/2, we get the whole number 2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The final line, &#8220;Make it godofAPEX,&#8221; seems to be a special instruction for the name on the order and does not change the quantity required.
