Question

A banana bread recipe that makes 4 loaves calls for 12 bananas. If you are making 24 loaves, how many bananas do you need?

Answer 1

You need 72 bananas because each recipe calls for 3 bananas and 3 times 24 is 72

Answer 2

So, the first question is: How many bananas do you need for 1 loaf? divide 12 by 4 and you get 3. so three bananas are needed for each loaf. Now, all you need to do is multiply 3 by 24 which equals 72. (:
