Beau's recipe for granola bars calls for 3 1/2 cups of oatmeal. He only has a 1/6 cup scoop. How many scoops of oatmeal will he

Drupady [299]

There will be $\boxed{\bf 21}$ scoops of oatmeal to complete the recipe.

Further explanation:

Given that Beau’s recipe of granola bars contains $3\frac{1}{2}$ cups of oatmeal.

Beau’s has only $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop.

Our aim is to find the number of scoops of oatmeal Beau’s needed to complete the recipe for granola bars.

Total cups of oatmeal are $3\frac{1}{2}$ .

First we have to convert the total cups of oat meal to proper fraction.

$\begin{aligned}\text{Cups of oatmeal for the recipe}&=\dfrac{(3\cdot 2)+1}{2}\\&=\dfrac{6+1}{2}\\&=\dfrac{7}{2}\end{aligned}$

There is only $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop.

Since there are $\frac{7}{2}$ cups of oatmeal and $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop, therefore, number of scoops required to complete the meal are calculated as follows:

$\begin{aligned}\text{Number of scoops required}&=\dfrac{\frac{7}{2}}{\frac{1}{6}}\\&=\dfrac{7}{2}\cdot 6\\&=7\cdot 3\\&=21\end{aligned}$

The total number of scoops is obtained in whole number; therefore, this is our final answer.

Therefore, $\boxed{\bf 21}$ scoops of oatmeal are needed by Beau’s to complete the recipe of granola bars.

The variables y and x have a proportional relationship, and y = 5 when x = 4. What is the value of x when y = 8? Enter your answ

Charra [1.4K]

Answer

Find out the what is the value of x when y = 8 .

To prove

As given

The variables y and x have a proportional relationship.

$y \propto x$

y = kx

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

As y = 5 when x = 4

Put in the above

5 = 4k

$k = \frac{5}{4}$

Now find out the value of x , when y = 8

$8 = \frac{5\times x}{4}$

$x = \frac{8\times 4}{5}$

x= 6.5

Therefore when y = 8 than x = 6.4
