Answer:</h2>
The number of meat patties that are needed if 52 pickles are used is:
39 meat patties.
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
It is given that:
The Big Burger recipe calls for 3 meat patties, 2 slices of cheese, and four pickles.
This means that for every 4 pickles there are 3 meat patties.
This means that for every 1 pickles there are: 3/4 meat patties.
Hence, for every 52 pickles there are: 3/4×52 meat patties
= 39 meat patties.
