Answer:

she needs 1 \frac{1}{3}   cup  of strawberries

Step-by-step explanation:

<em><u /></em>

To find the number of cups needed, we will simply solve using proportion

From the question, Jade picked  1 cup of strawberries for 3/4 of a cake

and we are asked to find the number of cups needed for a whole cake

Let x be the number of cups needed for the whole cake

\frac{3}{4}   cake       =      1 cup of strawberries

1 cake     =       x

Cross multiply

\frac{3}{4}   ×  x     =    1  ×    1

\frac{3x}{4}    =   1

cross multiply

3x =4

To get the value of x, we simply divide both-side of the equation by 3

\frac{3x}{3}    =      \frac{4}{3}

(On the left-hand side of the equation, 3 will cancel out 3 leaving us with x and on the right-hand side of the equation 4 will be divided by 3 which will give us 1 \frac{1}{3} )

x =  1 \frac{1}{3}

Therefore  1 \frac{1}{3}  cup of strawberries is needed for the whole cake.
