2 cakes - Theresa's and Joe's
Theresa's cake had 6 pieces after she cut it. (2 times the size of Joe's pieces)
Joe's cake had 12 pieces after he cut it. (1/2 the size of Theresa's pieces)
We know that 8/12ths of ONE cake were eaten and that Joe ate 2 of his pieces.
We want to know how many pieces Theresa ate of her cake. Keeping in mind that her pieces are equal to 2 of Joe's pieces we can solve this question.
8/12 eaten total
if 2/12 by Joe
then 8-2 = 6, 6/12 by Theresa
(BUT: Theresa's pieces were twice the size of Joe's so we will divide by 2)
6/12 = 3/6
Answer: Theresa ate 3 pieces of her cake

Answer:
There are many.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you say proportional, you are looking for a ratio that is equivalent to the ratio given. In your case, there are many so you might need to be more specific. But still, we can help you figure it out.
An easy way to do this would be to scale it down to its simplest form and then move upwards. To find proportional ratios, just multiply denominator and the denominator with the same factor.

That is your ratio in its simplest form. Now we can scale up, I'll show you how to do one completely:

That's the same ratio scaled up by a factor of 2.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That's the ratio given

Scaled up by a factor of 4

Scaled up by a factor of 5.
The list goes on and on.
Step-by-step explanation:
$5 US dollar = L123 Honduran Lempiras
L2300Honduran Lempiras = x ( Let $ be x)
By using chain rule, we get
5×2300 = 123×x
or, 11500 = 123x
or, x = 11500÷123
hence, x = 93.49593496
