You set up the equation like this:
T/45+T/53=1
You find the least common factor of 53 and 45 and times both sides so you end up with this:
53T+45T= least common factor
Then add up 53T and 45T.
98T= least common factor
Then divide 98 from both sides. That will be your answer.
Sorry I didn't have enough time to find the least common factor but it is a number that they both go into. I would check to make sure I'm correct. I hope this helps!
Answer:
Is this pure maths cause I don't know what's going on here
.....Yep.
Or is there a second part to this problem?
Answer:
8.75 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5:1 (the ratio of batches to 1 batch)
x:2.5 (the ratio of cups of sugar used to the amount used for only 1 batch)
3.5/1=x/2.5 (proportion)
x= 8.75
