Liam is making applesauce from his grandmother's recipe. Her recipe uses two apples to make five servings. Liam would like to make 35 servings of applesauce. If the number of apples varies directly with the number of servings, how many apples does Liam need?

Answer:

14 apples. If 2 apples make 5 servings you can divide 35 by 5 to get 7. Then you multiply 7 × 2 to get 14 apples
