Question

A recipe that will make 3 pies calls for 7 cups of flour. write a proportion and solve it to find how many pies can be made with 28 cups of flour

Answer 1

3/7=?/28
12 pies can be made with 28 cups of flour
28/7=4*3=12
Also, if u simplify 12/28, u get 3/7 which is proportionate.

X = pies

3 pies => 7 cups of flour

3/7 = x/28
7x = 84
x = 12

You can make 12 pies with 28 cups of flour.
