Next number in sequence 3 -6 12 4 20 ?

Artyom0805 [142]

-6 - 3 = -9
12 - (-6) = 18
4 - 12 = -8
20 - 4 = 16
The first difference is -9. The third difference is -8.
Maybe the fifth difference is -7.
That makes the next term 13.

Beau's recipe for granola bars calls for 3 1/2 cups of oatmeal. He only has a 1/6 cup scoop. How many scoops of oatmeal will he

Drupady [299]

There will be $\boxed{\bf 21}$ scoops of oatmeal to complete the recipe.

Further explanation:

Given that Beau’s recipe of granola bars contains $3\frac{1}{2}$ cups of oatmeal.

Beau’s has only $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop.

Our aim is to find the number of scoops of oatmeal Beau’s needed to complete the recipe for granola bars.

Total cups of oatmeal are $3\frac{1}{2}$ .

First we have to convert the total cups of oat meal to proper fraction.

$\begin{aligned}\text{Cups of oatmeal for the recipe}&=\dfrac{(3\cdot 2)+1}{2}\\&=\dfrac{6+1}{2}\\&=\dfrac{7}{2}\end{aligned}$

There is only $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop.

Since there are $\frac{7}{2}$ cups of oatmeal and $\frac{1}{6}$ cup scoop, therefore, number of scoops required to complete the meal are calculated as follows:

$\begin{aligned}\text{Number of scoops required}&=\dfrac{\frac{7}{2}}{\frac{1}{6}}\\&=\dfrac{7}{2}\cdot 6\\&=7\cdot 3\\&=21\end{aligned}$

The total number of scoops is obtained in whole number; therefore, this is our final answer.

Therefore, $\boxed{\bf 21}$ scoops of oatmeal are needed by Beau’s to complete the recipe of granola bars.
