1/be + 1/bi +1/e=1/12
1/bi + 1/e=1/15
10/be +10/bi +10/e+5/be+5/bi=1
Solve for be, bi, and e

RSB [31]

Answer:

d = 5/8f

Step-by-step explanation:

You have the ratio 4d = 2 1/2f, so all you have to do is simplify this equation:

4d = 2 1/2f

divide both sides by 4

d = 5/8f.

(This represents that each dozen uses 5/8 of a cup of flour)
