Question

A recipe calls for using 3/4 cup of brown sugar for each 2/3 cup of white sugar. How many cups of white sugar are used per cup of brown sugar *I will give brainlist

Answer 1

Answer:

3/4 all over 2/3 equal to x/1 cup

So 3/4 / 2/3 =x/1, now you can cross multiple so 3/4*1=3/4 then 2/3*x=2x/3 then you can solve for x.

3/4=2x/3  multiple 3 to both sides so the 3 cancels with the denominator of 2x

9/4=2x    then divide by 2 to both sides to get x alone

9/8=x

1.125=x

So, for every 1 cup of white sugar you need 1.125 cups of brown sugar.
