Question

Two bowls of pasta at a resaurant serve 3 people how many bowls of pasta should be ordered for 12 people

Answer 1

2 bowls per 3 people can be shown as:
$\frac{2\ bowls}{3\ people}\\ \frac{2\ bowls}{3\ people}\\ Multiply\ by\ \frac{4}{4}\\ \frac{4}{4} * \frac{2}{3}\\ \frac{8}{12}=\frac{8\ bowls}{12\ people}$
So the number of bowls you'll need for 12 people is 8.

Answer 2

4 bowls of pasta would be served for twelve people.

4×3=12
