Answer:
c.
Step-by-step explanation:
White flour makes up 2 / (2+3) of the total 10 cups: 2/5 of the total 10 cups.
2/5 times 10 is 4 cups.
You'll need 4 cups white flour and 6 cups whole wheat flour, making a total of 10 cups of flour.
Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to cross multiply on both sides, which gives us:
9 * (5x - 6) = 27 * (2 + x)
45x - 54 = 54 + 27x
Now, we want to isolate x on either side.
We can substract 54 from both sides:
(45x - 54 = 54 + 27x) - 54
45x - 108 = 27x
We then subtract 45 from both sides:
(45x - 108 = 27x) - 45
-108 = -18x
Finally, we divide both sides by -18:
(-108 = -18x) / -18
6 = x
