Question

Georgia makes trail mix by mixing fruit

Answer 1

Answer: 12 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the ounces of fruits that should be added be represented by x.

Based on the information given in the question, this can be represented by:

3/2 = 18/x

Cross multiply

3 × x = 18 × 2

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12

Therefore, 12 ounces of nuts should be added.

Answer 2

Answer:

By inverse proportion,

3/2 = 18/x

3x = 36

x = 36/3

x = 12.

Hence, 12 ounces of nuts should she add.
