<span>(2 / 7) / 100 = </span>
<span>2 / 700 </span>
<span>2 : 698 </span>
<span>1 : 349</span>
Cups of flour=15 3/4=15+ 3/4=(4*15+3)/4=63/4
Cups of sugar=10 1/2=(2*10+1)/2=21/2
We solve this problem by rule of 3:
63/4 cups of flour--------------100 people
x------------------------------------ 25 people
x=(63/4 cups of flout * 25 people)/100 people=1575/400 cups of flour=
=63/16=(3*16+15)/16=3 15/16 cups of flour.
21/2 cups of sugar-----------------100 people
x-----------------------------------------25 people
x=(21/2 cups fo sugar * 25 people) / 100 people=525/200 cups of sugar= 21/8 =(2*8+ 5)/8=2 5/8 cups of sugar.
Answer: 3 15/16 cups of flour and 2 5/8 cups of sugar.
