Answer:

3 teaspoons.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to do this by figuring out how many teaspoons of molasses is need to serve 2 and then multiply that number by 3. because 3 x 2 = 6.

10 divided by 5 is 2. 5 divided by 5 equals 1. This means that to feed 2 people you need 1 teaspoon of molasses.

1 tsp + 1 tsp + 1 tsp = 3 tsp.

This means that I need 3 tsp of molasses to feed 6 people.

Answer:

AC = 15, CM = 20, CP = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached picture, I tried to explain as much as possible, the general idea is there are three triangles that are similar to one another and thus in proportion. Therefore you can find missing sides using ratios.

The answer is -20x, because the parentheses show they are being multiplied, so you multiply -10x and 2, which would be -20x.

A package of 8 count batteries costs $6.16. A package of 20-count AA BATTERIES COSTS $15.20.

The unit price of the 20 pack is $0.79 and the unit price for the 8 pack is $0.80.

Simply Take the price of the pack of batteries divided by the number within the pack.
$6.40 / 8 == $0.80
$15.80 / 20 == $0.79
