Answer: 72 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be "s" the amount of sugar in grams that  must be used for 252 grams of coconut to keep the same ratio of coconut to sugar.

Knowing that in the recipe for the coconut cookies, should be 420 grams of coconut and 120 grams of sugar, and you only have 252 grams of coconut, you can set up this proportion to find "s":

\frac{420grams}{120grams}=\frac{252grams}{s}

Now, you need to solve for "s":

\frac{420grams}{120grams}=\frac{252grams}{s}\\\\s(\frac{420grams}{120grams})=252grams\\\\s=(252grams)(\frac{120grams}{420grams})\\\\s=72grams

What is 9 2/5-8 1/3 I need to know for math tomorrow
patriot [66]

Answer:

1\frac{1}{15}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use a start by using common denominators. 9\frac{2}{5} = 9\frac{6}{15} and 8\frac{1}{3} = 8 \frac{5}{15}

Now, replace the original equation with the common denominators. 9\frac{6}{15} - 8\frac{5}{15}

Solve! 9\frac{6}{15} - 8\frac{5}{15} = 1\frac{1}{15}
