The problem in the image states:

"A box contains 10 cups of pancake mix. You use \( \frac{1}{2} \) cup each time you make pancakes. How many times can you make pancakes?"

### Solution:
We need to determine how many times you can use \( \frac{1}{2} \) cup of pancake mix from a total of 10 cups. This is essentially dividing 10 by \( \frac{1}{2} \):

\[
\text{Number of times} = \frac{10}{\frac{1}{2}} = 10 \times 2 = 20
\]

Therefore, you can make pancakes 20 times.

Would you like further explanation on this, or have any questions? 

Here are 5 related questions to think about:

1. What if the total amount of pancake mix was 15 cups instead of 10? How many times could you make pancakes?
2. If you used \( \frac{1}{3} \) cup each time, how many pancakes could you make with 10 cups?
3. How would the number of pancakes change if the box had 20 cups of mix and you used \( \frac{1}{2} \) cup per batch?
4. If you used \( \frac{3}{4} \) cup each time, how many pancakes could you make from 10 cups?
5. What would happen if you only had 5 cups of mix but still used \( \frac{1}{2} \) cup each time?

**Tip:** When dividing by fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the fraction.

A box contains 10 cups of pancake mix. You use 1/2 cup each time you make pancakes. How many times can you make pancakes?
