4 servings : 2 potatoes and 4 celery sticks. Find the number of potatoes and celery sticks in 6 servings. 6/4 = 1.50 2 potatoes x 1.50 = 3 potatoes 4 celery sticks x 1.50 = 6 celery sticks 6 servings of stew has 3 potatoes and 6 celery sticks. Other way of computing for the 6 servings is getting the number of potatoes and celery sticks per serving.
Background: log (a . b) = log a + log b hence log(10000x) = log 10000 + log x but we know that log 10000 = 4 = 4 + log x therefore the graph of log(10000x) is just the graph of log x transposed by 4
