The recipe is 4 times bigger than you need it to be. 100/25=4 Now just divide all ingredients by 4.

1.)100/4=25
2.)72/4=18
3.)14/4=3.5
4.)6/4=1.5
5.)24/4=6
6.)80/4=20
7.)50/4=12.5

Well, we are starting with 100 servings, and we're trying to find the amount of ingredients necessary to create 25 servings. To do this, we must first simply divide 25 by 100 to see what the ratio would be, and when we do this, we can see that

25 / 100 = \frac{25}{100} = \frac{1}{4}

Now, all we have to do is multiply all of the ingredients by the ratio to find out how much we would use for only a quarter of the amount that the original recipe calls for.

In order to multiply by a whole number by a fraction, you just need to make sure that the numerator is lined up with the whole number, and then put a 1 below the whole number to turn it into a fraction. Then, you can divide the numerators and denominators together, respectively.

1.) 100 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{100}{1} *  \frac{1}{4} = \frac{100 * 1}{1 * 4} = \frac{100}{4} = 25

2.) 72 * \frac{1}{4} =  \frac{72}{1} *  \frac{1}{4} =\frac{72 * 1}{1*4} = \frac{72}{4} = 18

3.) 14 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{14}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{14 *1}{1*4} = \frac{14}{4} = 3 \frac{1}{2}

4.) 6 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{6}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{6*1}{1*4} = \frac{6}{4} = <span>1 \frac{1}{2} </span>

5.) 24 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{24}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{24*1}{1*4} = \frac{24}{4} = 6

6.) 80 * \frac{1}{4} = <span>\frac{80}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{80*1}{1*4} = \frac{80}{4} = <span>20</span>

</span>7.) 50 * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{50}{1} * \frac{1}{4} = \frac{50*1}{1*4} = \frac{50}{4} = 12 \frac{1}{2}

And there you have the recipe ingredients necessary for 25 servings.
Hope that helped! =)

What is the common denominator of StartFraction 1 Over a EndFraction StartFraction 1 Over b EndFraction in the complex fraction
stepladder [879]

The common denominator is 1

Given the expression:

  • \frac{1/a-1/b}{1/a1/b}

Find the LCM of the numerator to have:

  • \dfrac{\frac{b-a}{ab} }{\frac{1}{a} \frac{1}{b} }

Simplify both the numerator and the denominator to have:

= \dfrac{\frac{b-a}{ab} }{\frac{1}{ab} }\\= \frac{b-a}{ab} \times ab\\=\frac{b-a}{1} \times 1  \\=\frac{b-a}{1}

From the result, we can see that the common denominator is 1

-1/6*-1/5=<br> pls help fast I will give brainliest to first or second
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-1/6 * -1/5 = 1/30

A negative number times a negative number equals a positive number. When multiplying fractions, the numerators get multiplied over the denominators being multiplied. so -1 * -1 = 1 which is the numerator. 6 * 5 is 30 which is the denominator.

3.6.8

4.10.00

5.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1 4066 as an example start from the end a 5 or more it turns to a zero and the one next to it

so in this case we now have 4100 but since it isn't 5 or more we make it a zero and move on so now we have 4000

sorry if I am wrong I am also an idiot so hopefully this helps for the future :)
