Using proportions, it is found that the possible amounts that he will spend on candy are represented by the inequality .
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.
In this problem, each pound of candy costs $6, and he will buy at most 9 pounds, hence the maximum amount he will spend is given by:
M = $6 x 9 = $54.
Hence, the possible amounts that he will spend on candy are represented by the inequality .

is greater than
Step-by-step explanation:
First, if you unmix the numbers, you will get 1 1/8 and 1 1/9. If you split something into 9, the pieces will be smaller than if you split something into 8.
Therefore, 9/8 is greater than 10/9.

Answer:
32 muffins
Step-by-step explanation:
one cup of milk will make 32 muffins
you can set up a proportion of milk/muffins = milk/muffins
let 'x' = number of muffins made from one cup of milk
5/8 ÷ 20 = 1 ÷ x
cross-multiply to get 5x = 20(8)
5x = 160
x = 32
