Step-by-step explanation:

4.

2 cups           x cups

-------------- = -----------

6 people         18 people

Using cross products

2 * 18 = 6x

Divide by 6

36/6 =6x/6

6 =x

6.

12 cans           30 cans

-------------- = -----------

20 dollars         x dollars

Using cross products

12x = 20*30

12x = 600

Divide by 12

12x/12 =600/12

x = 50

7.

3 hours = 3*60 minutes/hour = 180 minutes

30 minutes           180 minutes

--------------        = -----------

4500 words         x words

Using cross products

30x = 4500*180

Divide by 30

x = 4500*180/30

x=27000

8.

45 dollars           x dollars

-------------- = -----------

15 burgers        100 burgers

Using cross products

45*100 = 15x

Divide by 15

45*100/15 = x

300 =x
