a) 6 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a ratio equation to solve:
3/2 = 9/x
Cross multiply to get:
3x = 18
Solve for x:
x = 6
2 1/2 cups
First, our ratio is sugar:flour or 2:5, so our question is 1:? We find ? by finding how we got to 1 on the other side.
2 ÷ 2 = 1
And what we do to one side, we always have to do to the other to make it proportional, so
5 ÷ 2 = 2.5 or 2 1/2
So, if Jason is using 1 cup of sugar, he should use 2 1/2 cups of flour
