Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

5b=2f

Step-by-step explanation:

Priya uses $7\dfrac{1}{2}$ cups of floor to make 3 loaves of banana bread.

Andre will follow the same recipe. He will make b loaves of banana bread using f cups of flour.

To find the relation between b and f, the steps are as follows :

$\dfrac{\text{cups of flour}}{\text{loaves of banana bread}}=\dfrac{7 \dfrac{1}{2}}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{\dfrac{15}{2}}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{15}{2}\times \dfrac{1}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}$

It means,

$\dfrac{f}{b}=\dfrac{5}{2}\\\\5b=2f$

So, the relationship between b and f is "5b=2f".
