Answer:
1 69/145 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use ratio's to solve this problem. We will put water over time
214 cups x cups
--------------- = --------------
145 hours 1 hours
Using cross products
214 *1 =145 x
Divide both sides by 125
214/145 = 145x/145
214/145 = x
145 goes into 215 1 time with 69 left over
1 69/145
19,008 I just used a calculator
It is proportional because we increase y.
Answer:
assume an approximate value for the variable that will simplify the equation.
solve for the variable.
use the answer as the second approximate value and solve the equation again.
repeat this process until a constant value for the variable is obtained.
