Answer:

Equation: 1 apple pie = 10 apples + 2 crusts + 1 tablespoon of cinnamon.

You will need 250 apples to make 25 pies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi to answer this question we have to analyze the information given:

Apple pie:

  • 10 large apples
  • 2 crusts
  • 1 tablespoon of cinnamon

So, the equation for 1 apple pie would be:

1 apple pie = 10 apples + 2 crusts + 1 tablespoon of cinnamon

For 25 pies, we simply multiply each side of the equation by 25:

25 x (1 apple pie) = 25x (10 apples + 2 crusts + 1 tablespoon of cinnamon )

25 apple pies = 250 apples + 50 crusts + 25 tablespoons of cinnamon)

So, you will need 250 apples to make 25 pies.
