Answer:
She will use the ratio shortening to flour as 4 : 15
Step-by-step explanation:
When Mrs. Stewart makes pie dough, she uses
cups of shortening for every
cups of flour.
So, for each
cup of shortening she uses
cups of flour.
Then, the ratio of shortening to flour in the mixture of pie dough will be
i.e. 4 : 15.
Therefore, she will use the ratio shortening to flour as 4 : 15 to find the amount of flour she needs when she uses 5 cups of shortening. (Answer)
Area of rectangle = Length*width
A = 28 so 28 = 4 * height
height = 28/4 = 7
2a + 4 - 7a + a
2a -7a +a +4
-5a + a +4
-4a + 4
-4a + 4 is your answer
hope this helps
In simplest form (smallest possible answer) the ratio is equal to 2:3. But it is also equal to 4:6.
