3 0

Answer:

63 and 72

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum the parts of the ratio, 7 + 8 = 15 parts

Divide the sum by 15 to find the value of one part of the ratio

135 ÷ 15 = 9 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, thus

7 parts = 7 × 9 = 63

8 parts = 8 × 9 = 72

The numbers are 63 and 72

Roger has 2 1/2 cups of butter. A recipe for a loaf of bread requires 3/4 cups of butter. How many loaves can Roger bake?

lubasha [3.4K]

The number of loaves can be determined with dividing the butter by the number of cups needed for a loaf.
loaves = 2 1/2 ÷ 3/4

Change into improper fraction
loaves = 2 1/2 ÷ 3/4
loaves = 5/2 ÷ 3/4

Change into multiplication
loaves = 5/2 ÷ 3/4
loaves = 5/2 × 4/3
loaves = 20/6
loaves = 10/3
loaves = 3.3
Because the number of loaves can't be a fraction, round it to the smaller whole number

Roger can make 3 loaves of bread
