Question

Henry uses 3/8 cup of sugar for 2/7 batch of hus brownies. How much sugar is needed for a full batch of brownies​

Answer 1

Answer:
`(21)/(16)\ cups\ of\ sugar\approx1.3\ cups\ of\ sugar`

Explanation:

Let be "x" the cups of sugar needed for a full batch of brownies.

You need to analize the information provided in the exercise.

Since Henry uses
`(3)/(8)` cups of sugar for
`(2)/(7)` batch of brownies, you can write the following proportion:

`((3)/(8))/((2)/(7))=(x)/(1)`

Finally, you must solve for "x".

Therefore, you get the following result:

`x=(21)/(16)\ cups\approx1.3\ cups`
