So to solve this you would need to do 14 / 4 to find how many more people there are, and that gives you 3.5 Now you would need to multiply 480 by 3.5, giving you 1680.

So the answer is 1.68 kg

Answer 2

1.68 kilograms

Explanation:

Given : She needs 480 grams of pasta for 4 people.

To Find : kilograms would she need for 14.

Solution :

She need 480 grams for 4 people

First convert 480 grams in kilograms

Since 1000 grams = 1 kilograms

So, 1 gram = 1/1000 kilograms

So, 480 grams = 480/1000 kilograms

Thus she need pasta for 4 people = 0.480 kilograms

So, she need pasta for 1 people = 0.480/4 = 0.12

Now, she need pasta for 14 people = 0.12 *14 = 1.68 kilograms .

Hence she need 1.68 kilograms pasta for 14 people .
