Answer:

5 7/10 cups of raisins

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that the total volume made equals the sum of the volumes of the individual ingredients.

He uses 2 cups of raisins and makes 7 cups of trail mix. That mean the amount of other ingredients is 7 cups - 2 cups = 5 cups.

He uses 2 cups raisins and 5 cups of other ingredients.

When he uses 14 1/4 cups of other ingredients instead of only 5 cups, he is multiplying the recipe to make it bigger.

Now we calculate how many times he is multiplying the recipe by.

14 1/4 divided by 5 = (14 1/4)/5 = (57/4)/5 = 57/4 * 1/5 = 57/20

He is making 57/20 times the original recipe.

Since he is making 57/20 times the recipe, he needs 57/20 times 2 cups of raisins.

Now we calculate what 57/20 times 2 cups of raisins is.

57/20 * 2 = (57 * 2)/10 = (57 * 2)/(10 * 2) = 57/10 = 5 7/10

Answer: 5 7/10 cups of raisins

Christine is 4 years younger than Mark. 3 years from now, she will be two-thirds as old as Mark find their present ages.Complete
icang [17]

Answer:Mark Is 9 years old; Christine is 5 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Present age

LET  mark age be x

Christine be x-4 yrs

In 3 yrs Time

Mark will be x+3 yrs old

Christine  will be  (x -4 +3) = x-1 years old

Also, In 3 years time

Christine  = 2/3 Mark

such that

  x-1 = 2/3(x+3)

  x -1= 2x+6 / 3

    3x  -3= 2x+6

      3X--2X = 6+3

         =X=9

Mark Is 9 years old

Christine is   x -4 = 9-4=5 years old
