Using proportions, we can say that <u>40 cups of ice cream</u> can be made using 5 cups of sugar.

Ratio and fractions are the main bases on which proportion is explained. A fraction is written as a/b, while a ratio is represented as a:b, and a proportion states that two ratios are equal. In this case, a and b can be any two integers. The ratio and proportion are important building blocks for understanding the numerous ideas in science and mathematics.

In the question, we are given that Maya's ice cream machine makes 4 cups of ice cream from 0.5 cups of sugar.

We are asked to find the number of cups of ice cream that can be made with 5 cups of sugar.

The given problem can be shown as a proportion with the ratio of the number of cups of ice cream, to the number of cups of sugar.

We know that 0.5 cups of sugar make 4 cups of ice cream.

We assume that n number of cups of ice cream is made of 5 cups of sugar.

By proportion, we can show that:

n/5 = 4/0.5,

or, n = 5*4/0.5,

or, n = 40.

Thus, using proportions, we can say that <u>40 cups of ice cream</u> can be made using 5 cups of sugar.
