Lets check...
42/56 = 56/64
cross multiply
(56)(56) = (42)(64)
3136 = 2688...(incorrect)...these are not proportional
proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions
42/56 = 3/4
56/64 = 7/8
as u can see, they are not equivalent fractions...so they are not proportional
Clarissa is not correct. If she were to choose one from the stack at random, it means that she has a 25%, or a 1/4 chance to pick the oatmeal, just like the other breakfast items.
If there were to be more oatmeals than any of the other items, it will heighten the chance of her getting oatmeal which would be the only way to make her statement correct.
7 batches. There is 12 cookies in a dozen so multiply 8×12 to get 96 cookies. 96 Is the total cookies you need to make. So if you divide 96 by the 14 to see how many batches you must make. you will get a number of 6.85... so you must round up to 7.
X<-7 so the answer would be greater*
