If you do x- number of water cups 1 over 8 will equal 32 over x ,x=256 so 256
if this makes any sense if not ill try better to explain
She wants 25she divides each by 12 to get for 1 person then multiplies by 25 to get for 25 peoplemulitply each ingredient by 25/12
for multiplying fractions, try to put them in standard a/b form first
flour1 and 1/2 times 25/12=2/2+1/2 times 25/12=3/2 times 25/12=75/24=25/8=24/8+1/8=3+1/8=3 and 1/8 cup flour
baking powder1 times 25/12=25/12=24/12+1/12=2+1/12=2 and 1/12 tsp baking powder
salt1/2 times 25/12=25/24=24/24+1/24=1+1/24=1 and 1/24 tsp salt
butter1 times 25/12=25/12=24/12+1/12=2+1/12=2 and 1/12 stick of butter
sugar
1 times 25/12=25/12=24/12+1/12=2+1/12=2 and 1/12 cup of sugar
eggs3 times 25/12=3/1 times 25/12=75/12=25/4=24/4+1/4=6+1/4=6 and 1/4 eggs
vanilla extract
1 and 1/2 times 25/12=2/2+1/2 times 25/12=3/2 times 25/12=75/24=25/8=24/8+1/8=3+1/8=3 and 1/8 tsp vainlla extract
milk3/4 times 25/12=75/48=25/16=16/16+9/16=1+9/16=1 and 9/16 cup milk
for 25 servings

It cant be converted into a mixed number because it has no whole.
The sides of a triangle must satisfy the triangle inequality, which states the sum of the lengths of any two sides is strictly greater than the length of the remaining side.
We really only have to check if the sum of the two smaller sides exceeds the largest side.
A. 5+6>7, ok
B. 6+6>10, ok
C. 7+7=14 Not ok, this is a degenerate triangle not a real triangle
D. 4+6>8 ok
Answer: C
No solution / no x
D=b^2-4*a*c -> D=-4^2-4*1*21 -> D=-28 -> D<0, no solution
