Answer:

12 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If the size of the bag decreased by 20%, so will the number of cups held.

Number of cups held before the change = 15 cups

If the number of cups held after the 20% reduction in the size of the bag

= (100 - 20)% × 15

=80% × 15

= 12 cups

The new bags will hold 12 cups.

A chef uses 5 pounds of flour to bake 120 blueberry muffins.
Cloud [144]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this problem by setting up a ratio. 5 pounds of flour makes 120 muffins, so the ratio of pounds of flour to muffins is 5:120=1:24. This means that you can make 24 muffins with 1 pound of flour. Multiplying both of these by 2, you get 24*2=48 muffins with two pounds of flour, or answer choice A. Hope this helps!
