You do NOT have enough cups of sugar for 40 people
If a recipe calls for 1 1/2 OR 1.5 (decimal form) for 6 people then:
1.5/6 = 0.25 cups of sugar PER person

0.25 x 40 = 10 cups
We will need 10 cups of sugar for 40 people but the we only have 9 cups
therefore 9 cups arent enough for 40 ppl

A survey found that 12 out of every 15 people in the united States prefer eating at a restaurant over cooking at home. if 400 pe
I am Lyosha [343]
500 people took the survey.

12 out of 15 people is 80% of the population.  12/15 = 0.80
Thus, 80% of the population prefers eating in the restaurant.
 
If 400 represents the people who prefers eating in the restaurant; then, 400 is the 80% of the population. To get the total population or 100%, we must divide 400 by 0.80 or 80%

400 / 0.80 = 500 people.

Out of the 500 people, 400 selected eating in the restaurant while the remaining 20% of the population or 100 people selected cooking at home.
