Answer:

632 frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the initial number of frogs were 56 that were already marked, and later on, the frogs collected were 600, out of which 24 were already marked, so we can say that the total number of frogs 'x' should be:

x = 600 + (56-24)\\

x = 600 + 32

x = 632

Hence, the total number of frogs should be 632.

A punch recipe that serves 24 people calls for 4 liters of lemon-lime soda, 2 pints of sherbet, and 6 cups of ice. How much of e
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

For 12 people, the identical recipe that would serve this amount would be 2 liters of lemon-lime soda, 1 pints of sherbet, and 3 cups of ice.

To figure out the corresponding proportion from 24 servings to 12 servings, first we divide 24 by 12, which is 2. The number 2 represents how many times bigger the original recipe is to the smaller 12 servings version, which mean the 24 people version would be twice as big compared to the 12 people serving. So all we have to do to the recipe is divide it in half. And so 4 liters divided by 2 is 2 liters of lemon-lime soda, 2 pints of sherbet becomes 1 pint, and 6 ice cups turns into 3 cups of ice.
