Answer:
The right answer is Option C.
Step-by-step explanation:
Cups of kernel used = 0.5
Cups of popcorn made = 16
Ratio of kernel used to popcorn made = 0.5:16
New cups of kernel used = 0.75
Let, x be the new number of cups of popcorn. Ratio of kernels to popcorn made = 0.75:x Using proportion, Ratio of kernel used to popcorn made :: Ratio of kernel to popcorn
Product of mean = Product of extreme
Dividing both sides by 0.5
24 cups of popcorn can be made from 0.75 cups of kernels.
The right answer is Option C.
