Answer:
30:50 OR Can reduce it to 3:5
Step-by-step explanation:
30: 50 OR 3.5
You have to figure out what 48 percent of 70 is.
Use the formula percent/of = x/100.
So, 48/70 and x/100 you cross multiply the numbers; 48*100 and 70*x and end up with 70x=4800.
Divide both sides by 70, which gives you 68.57.
Round the number up to 69 percent.
Set up a proportion. 4 3/4 cup broth is to 10 servings as x cups broth is to 1 serving soup.
x= amount of broth in one serving
(4 3/4)/10= x/1
cross multiply
(4 3/4)(1)= 10x
convert 4 3/4 to improper fraction
(19/4)(1)= 10x
19/4= 10x
divide both sides by 10
19/4 ÷ 10= x
to divide fractions, multiply by reciprocal of 10
19/4 * 1/10= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(19*1)/(4*10)= x
19/40 cup= x
ANSWER: 19/40 cup in one serving
Hope this helps! :)
