The easiest way to solve a problem like this is to cross multiply and solve
The problem gives us a ratio
2 pounds of granola = 3 pounds of raisins
which makes a ratio of

The other ratio is
? pounds of granola = 24 pounds of raisins
which makes a ratio of

To solve, set them equal to each other ...

Now we must cross multiply...
To cross multiply, we multiply
2 and 24 and we multiply
3 and x Now we have an equation to solve!
3x = 48 To solve and get your final answer, divide...
x =
x = 16
You'll need 16 pounds of granola

Step-by-step explanation: Hopes this helps :)
<span>After 1 hour, the diving bell was -1/2 mile relative to sea level.
Since the rate of decent is constant, we can use two ratios to represent the depth at 2 different times. To make things easier to write, I'll use decimals to represent time and depth.
-.75 / 1.5 = x / 1
Now solve for x
-0.5 = x
So after 1 hour, the diving bell was -1/2 mile relative to sea level.</span>
