Answer:

153 ounces of sugar will be needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use unitary method to calculate the amount of sugar to make 255 cupcakes by Amanda

∵ To make 75 cupcakes amount of sugar needed = 45 ounces

∴ To make 1 cupcake amount of sugar will be needed = 45/75

∴ 255 cupcakes will need amount of sugar = (45/75)×255

= (0.6) × 255

= 153 ounces

Therefore 153 ounces is the answer.

nikklg [1K]

Let S represent Sunaina's age.

Let T represent Tanish's age.

So 2S - T/2 = 40, 4S - T = 80.

Either S - T = 2 or T - S = 2. Let's try both cases.

Either 3S = 78 or 3S = 82.

Since 82 is not a multiple of 3, S = 26.

So Sunaina is 26 years old and Tanish is 24 years old.
