Answer:
3 3/4 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
We need 3/4 cups of beans for 7 servings, and we need to figure out how many cups we need for <em>35 servings</em>. You'll notice that 7 times 5 is 35. We can multiply 3/4 by 5 to find the answer to our problem. This thought process looks somewhat like this:
Notice that we can multiply 5 by 3/4 to find the value of x.
So, 3/4 times 5 is equal to 15/4, or 3 3/4. So, you need 3 3/4 cups of beans for 35 servings.
