Answer:

6.25 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's make a proportion expression:

2.5/48 = x/120

Let x be the amount of sugar needed to make 120 sugar cookies.

Cross multiply:

120*2.5=48x

48x=300

x=6.25

So, you would need 6 1/4 cups or 6.25 cups of sugar to make 120 sugar cookies.

What does this problem equal?show your work. -12(k+4)=60

HACTEHA [7]

Hey there!

First, divide both sides by 12
-12(k+4)/-12= 60/-12 and you would getk+4=5
Now subtract 4 from both sides

k+4-4= 5-4

k=-9
