Answer:
replace recipe quantities:
1/4 ⇒ 5/8; 1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4; 1 ⇒ 2 1/2; 1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4; 2 ⇒ 5
Step-by-step explanation:
The given recipe serves 4, so must be multiplied by 10/4 = 5/2 to make it make 10 servings.
The numbers in the recipe (ignoring units or ingredients) are ...
1/4, 1/2, 1, 1 1/2, 2
Each of these numbers needs to be multiplied by 5/2 to get the number for the larger recipe.
1/4 × 5/2 = 5/8
1/2 × 5/2 = 5/4 = 1 1/4
1 × 5/2 = 5/2 = 2 1/2
(1 1/2) × 5/2 = 3/2 × 5/2 = 15/4 = 3 3/4
2 × 5/2 = 5
Then, to make the larger recipe, rewrite it with the quantities replaced as follows:
old value ⇒ new value
1/4 ⇒ 5/8
1/2 ⇒ 1 1/4
1 ⇒ 2 1/2
1 1/2 ⇒ 3 3/4
2 ⇒ 5
__
For example, 1 1/2 lbs of fresh tomatoes ⇒ 3 3/4 lbs of fresh tomatoes
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
If you actually want to create the recipe, you may find it convenient to use a spreadsheet to list quantities, units, and ingredient names. Then you can add a column for the quantities for a different number of servings, and let the spreadsheet figure the new amounts. (A spreadsheet will compute quantities in decimal, so you will need to be familiar with the conversions to fractions--or use metric quantities.)
2500/10=250
250 represents how much the elephant can eat in one day. Since they want to know how much the elephant can eat in 1000 days you would multiply 250 and 1000 which leaves you with 250,000 pounds of food.
The elephant can eat 250,000 pounds of food in 10 days. :)
Answer:
Let the integers are p and q.
In case both integers are positive or negative, you add the numbers up and apply their sign to the sum.
<u>Examples:</u>
- 10 + 88 = 98
- -20 + (-15) = -35
In case one of the integers is negative and one positive.
Use absolute value in this case.
Subtract the numbers and apply the sign of the number with the greater absolute value.
<u>Examples:</u>
- - 10 + 15 = |15 - 10| = |5| = 5
- - 15 + 10 = - |15 - 10| = - |5| = -5
Answer:
Total selling price= $663.82
Selling price per liter= $1.69
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
Proportion of oil and gasoline:
Oil= 3/14= 0.21
Gasoline= 11/14= 0.79
The oil costs $0.75 per liter.
The gasoline costs $1.60 per liter.
<u>First, we need to calculate the number of liters of oil and gasoline required:</u>
<u></u>
Oil= 0.21*392= 82.32 liters
Gasoline= 0.79*392= 309.68
<u>Now, the total cost to produce 392 liters:</u>
Total cost= 82.32*0.75 + 309.68*1.6
Total cost= $577.23
<u>Finally, the total and unitary selling price:</u>
Total selling price= 577.23*1.15= $663.82
Selling price per liter= 663.82 / 392= $1.69
