Question

A recipe for salsa uses 65% of tomatoes.if a batch contains 5.2 cups of tomatoes,how large is the batch of salsa

Answer 1

Answer:

8 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's think about it as follows if 5.2 cups are equal to 65%, how many cups correspond to 100%.

We raised it using a simple rule of three

$65\longrightarrow 5.2\\ 100\longrightarrow x\\ x=\frac{100.(5.2)}{65}=8$

Answer 2

The recipe would be for 8 cups. Since 5.2 /.65=8
