PLEASE HELP I HAVE LIMITED TIME

the basic recipe for split pea soup serves 8 people find the amount of each ingredient needed to serve 32 people

Answer 1

Dried split peas 9 c

Water 8 qt

Chopped onion 3 c

Chopped celery 4 c

Ham shank 8 lb

Explanation:

The recipe is given for 8 people.

To find each ingredient to serve for 32 people, we need to multiply each quantity by 4.

Hence, the required amount of each ingredient is given below:

Dried split peas =
`4(2(1)/(4) )=4((9)/(4) ) = 9 c`

Water = 4 × 2 = 8 qt

Chopped onion =
`4((3)/(4) )=3 c`

Chopped celery = 4(1) = 4 c

Ham shank = 4 × 2 = 8 lb
