We set up a proportion: 37/100= ?/40

Cross multiply: 100*?= 37*40
⇒ ?= 37*40/100= 14.8

37% of 40 is 14.8~

Out of 40
50%=20
25%=10
5%=2
35%=14
So more or less 15.5

You simplify the fraction by dividing 2 to the nominator and the denominator. So 24/2=12, 8/2=4, 6/2=3. You can only divide a root with a root number so in this case the root three doesn't get affected

If you need 3/4 cups of beans for 7 servings. How many do you need if you want to make 35 servings

Answer:

3 3/4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

We need 3/4 cups of beans for 7 servings, and we need to figure out how many cups we need for <em>35 servings</em>. You'll notice that 7 times 5 is 35. We can multiply 3/4 by 5 to find the answer to our problem. This thought process looks somewhat like this:

$\frac{\frac{3}{4} }{7} = \frac{x}{35}$

Notice that we can multiply 5 by 3/4 to find the value of x.

So, 3/4 times 5 is equal to 15/4, or 3 3/4. So, you need 3 3/4 cups of beans for 35 servings.

Hopefully this was helpful! If you have any more questions, let me know.
