Answer: 1 cup of sugar
Step-by-step explanation:
A recipe for banana bread requires 3 cups of bananas for every 1 1/2 cups of sugar used.
Converting 1 1/2 cups of sugar to improper fraction becomes 3/2 cups of sugar.
If 3 cups of bananas is required for 3/2 cups of sugar,
x cups of bananas will require 1 cup of sugar
3x / 2 = 3
3x = 6
x = 6/3 = 2
Therefore,
2 cups of bananas will require 1 cup of sugar.
We are looking for the number of cups of sugar that would require 2 cups of bananas.
We already got the answer.
1 cup of sugar would be used if 2 cups of bananas are used.
Tank diameter = 1m
radius = 0.5m
height = 2m
Volume of tank of truck = πr²h = 3.142 * 0.5² * 2 = 1.571m³ = 1571 litre
Volume of tank to be filled = 890,000 litre
no. of trips = 890000/1571 = 566.52 ≈ 567 trips
I'm thinking this is what the problem looks like:

. The first thing to do is to move the

over to the other side because it has a common denominator with the other side. Doing that and at the same time combining them over their common denominator looks like this:

. The best way to solve for x now is to cross-multiply to get 3(4-x)=-4(x-4). Distributing through the parenthesis is 12 - 3x = -4x + 16. Solving for x gives us x = 4. Of course when we sub a 4 back in for x we get real problems, don't we? Dividing by zero breaks every rule in math that there ever was! So, yes, the solution is extraneous.
