A. The recipe  required 3/4 cup of sugar and 1/8 cup of butter.

The ratio of the sugar to butter in the original recipe is

\dfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{8}}=\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot \dfrac{8}{1}=\dfrac{6}{1}.

B. If Travis accidentally put a whole cup of butter in the mix, then he needs to put

\dfrac{3}{4}\cdot \dfrac{6}{1}=\dfrac{9}{2}=4\dfrac{1}{2} cup of sugar.

C. Travis has to put 1/8 cup of butter, but he put 1 cup of butter. The ratio is

\dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{8}}=\dfrac{1}{1}\cdot \dfrac{8}{1}=\dfrac{8}{1}.

If Travis wants to keep the ratios the same as they are in the original recipe, he needs to put 8 times more of all the other ingredients.

If it takes 10 women 8 days to make 3 treehouses, how many days does it take 6 women to make 36 treehouses
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

160 days

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 8 days with 10 women to make 3 tree houses, then the rate of woman per tree house is 3/80. Multiplying this by 6 and dividing by 36, you get a rate of 1/160 or 160 days. Hope this helps!
