$3\dfrac{1}{4}-1\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{13}{4}-\dfrac{8}{5}$

$\sf = \dfrac{13*5}{4*5}-\dfrac{8*4}{5*4}\\\\\\ = \dfrac{65}{20}-\dfrac{32}{20}\\\\\\ = \dfrac{65-32}{20}\\\\\\ = \dfrac{33}{20}\\\\ \\ = 1 \dfrac{13}{20}$

A recipe says to use 3cups of flour to make 48 cookies. What is a constant of proportionality that related the number of cookies

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

y=16 x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

For this one, we need to find the unit rate, which means how many cookies we can make using 1 cup of flour. To do that, we need to divide both the flour and the cookies by 3 to get 3/3=1 and 48/3=16. So the total amount of cookies made with one cup of flour is 16. So the constant proportionality is 16,1.
