Thing 1
A. You can set up a proportion by dividing how much of something there is by the original. (This probably doesn't make much sense but I hope you can understand it from the answer to the problem below!)
B.First, do 168/21 to see how many more times he put flour in.
168/21= 8
Then to find out the milk in the same proportion do the number (in this case 8) times the original of the thing you wan to find out.
8x9=72
72 tablespoons of milk are needed for 168 cups of flour in this adapted recipe.
Thing 2
24/36=8y
To solve any equation, you want to have letters on one side and numbers on the other, so...
-8 from both sides...
(24/36)-8=y
24/36=0.6
y=(0.6-8)
y=-7.4
Hope this helps :)
If Maya only has $15 dollars to spend and she buys a notebook for $5.50 then that leaves her with $9.50 and if she has to save $7.75 then that leaves her with $1.75 and since she wants to buy cookies then you have to figure out how many cookies she can get with $1.75 plus the tax but food doesn't have tax so she can buy 7 packages of cookies since there only 25 cents is right on point at $1.75 I hope I answered your question with all the calculating I had to do and the typing I went through to explain it to you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! now could you please give me a thank you and hit the brain aster button please and thank you so much
if you do !!!!!!!
