Answer: The first number that appears in both sequences is 28.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's write down numbers from each of the sequences
Sequence 1) We need to start from 7 and multiply 4
7x4=28, 28x4=112
The sequence is 7,28,112...
Sequence 2) We need to start from 8 and add 5
5+8=13, 13+5=18, 18+5=23, 23+5=28
The sequence is 8,13,18,23,28...
They both have 28
8 / 2 = 45 / x....8 servings to 2 cups = 45 servings to x cups
cross multiply
(8)(x) = (2)(45)
8x = 90
x = 90/8
x = 11 1/4 (or 11.25) cups of flour are needed <==
I think the answer is 3/8 pounds. You multiply the 3/4 pounds by 1/2 because the recipie has been cut in half. Hope this helps!
the answer is 6/13 because 12/26 reduces so the answer is 6/13
