Answer:
5 and 1/3 cups of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion like this:
2:3 for the original recipe
Then a second proportion for the recipe Jacoby used:
w:8 (use w for the unknown water amount)
Set up an equation so that the proportions equal each other. It helps if you write them in fraction form:
Use cross multiplication to get the new equation:
8 x 2 (or 16) = 3w
Then, divide both sides by 3 to get the amount for w, or water, by itself:
5 and 1/3 = w

Assuming that the 4.8% interest rate is an annual interest rate, then, after one year, with a principal of $3,000 we would be able to win 4.8% of $3000:
Divide 144 over 12 to find the monthly earnings:
Therefore, with a principal of $3,000 we would be earning $12 interest in 1 month.
For the earnings on the first month to be equal to $10, then you would have to win $120 annually, and $120 must be 4.8% of the principal. To find which quantity satisfies that 4.8% of it is equal to $120, divide 120 over 4.8%:
Therefore, the principal must be equal to $2500 for you to win $10 on the first month, and it would indeed be correct to say that if you open an account with $3000 you will earn at least $10 interest in 1 month.
