Hi!
We will solve this using proportions, like this:
3/4 cup for 8 slices of pie
x cup for 48 slices of pie
_______________________
x = ((3/4)*48)/8
x = (3*48)/(4*8)
x = 144/32
x = 4,5
You need 4 1/2 cups of white sugar for 48 slices of pie.
Hope this helps!
Unit rate means how much does it cost for 1 unit
140 for 18ft^2
divide by 18
140/18=7.77777777777777
so the unit rate is $7.78 per square foot
