Given:
3 teaspoons of salt for every 5 cups of flour.
How much salt is needed for 15 cups of flour?
This is a proportion problem:
a/b = c/d where ad = bc
3/5 = x/15
3*15 = 5x
45 = 5x
45/5 = x
9 = x
C. 9 teaspoons of salt is needed for 15 cups of flour.
3/5 = 9/15
3*15 = 5*9
45 = 45
Set equal to eachother
(2x+1) = 79
Subtract 1 from both sides
2x=78
Divide 2 from both sides
2x/2=78/2
X= 39
