Answers:

1.) 18 lemons
2.) 80 minutes

Explanation:

Porportions are a lot like fractions. For the first question, you can make the fraction 6/8, or 3/4 simplified. This means that for every 8 cups of water, you need 6 lemons.

Then, to find the amount of lemons you need if you have 24 cups of water, you need to think about what×8= 24. If we divide 24 by 8, we get 3, so if we multiply our fraction by 3/3, we should get the answer.

If we do 6/8 × 3/3, we get 18/24. This means that we need 18 lemons if we were to use 24 cups of water.

For the next question, our fraction 15/60, for 15 cakes baked in 60 minutes. Now we need to divide 20 cakes by 15.

This question is a little different from the first one because there will be a decimal involved. If we do 20/15, we get 1⅓. This means that this time, we will multiply 15/60 by (1⅓)/(1⅓).

If we multiply 60 by 1⅓, we get 80, which is the number of minutes needed to bake 20 cakes.

Hope this helps :)

Un grupo de 4 amigos va al cine y las entradas les han costado 24$.¿cuanto pagaria en total un grupo de 7 amigos por sus entrada

vodka [1.7K]

4 entries are 24 so one entry is 24/4 = 6

so 7 friends pay 6*7 = 42
