Anika [276]

Answer:

8 ounces of vinegar

36 ounces of dressing

Step-by-step explanation:

Marco makes his famous salad Jackson by mixing 5 1/4 ounces of olive oil with 1 1/2 ounces of vinegar.

Olive oil Vinegar

5 1/4 1 1/2

28 x

Write a proportion:

$\dfrac{5\frac{1}{4}}{28}=\dfrac{1\frac{1}{2}}{x}\\ \\5\dfrac{1}{4}\cdot x=28\cdot 1\dfrac{1}{2}\ [\text{Cross multiply}]\\ \\\dfrac{21}{4}x=28\cdot \dfrac{3}{2}\\ \\\dfrac{21 x}{4}=42\\ \\x=42\div \dfrac{21}{4}\\ \\x=42\cdot \dfrac{4}{21}\\ \\x=2\cdot 4\\ \\x=8\ ounces$

Marco will make

$28+8=36$ ounces of dressing
