Ok, so increasing a recipe originally for 16 to 24, you need to figure out how many times larger you need the recipe, so divide 24 by 16, and you get 1.5 (one and a half times larger)
You then just need to take each ingredient amount and multiply it by 1.5
2 cans chopped clams x 1.5 = 3 cans
4 cups broth x 1.5 = 6 cups
6 cups milk x 1.5 = 9 cups
4 cups cubed potatoes x 1.5 = 6 cups
Does this make sense?
4(x-1)=6 you start by dividing the whole equation by 4, so
x-1=6/4 simplify, x-1=3/2 then you add 1 to the whole equation
x=1 and 3/2 or x=5/2
Answer:
Your answer is the second one.
Step-by-step explanation:
All of the x's and y's match up.
Hope this helps!
