    6 3/7 ÷ 1/7

    45/7 ÷ 1/7

    45/7 * 7/1

    315/7

    = 45 cups

    7x6=42

    42+3=45

    45, 1/7 measuring cups

    45

    to convert a mixed number into an improper fraction you multiply the denominator (or bottom) of the fraction by the whole number then add it to the numerator (or top)
