The amount of chicken the cafeteria uses is

directly proportional to the number of
servings of Southwest Chili it makes. If
20 kilograms of chicken makes 220 servings
of Southwest Chili, how many servings can
be made with 35 kilograms of chicken?

The answer is 385.

Solution:
Let the number of servings be x

20/220 x 35/x

20x = 7700 {cross multiplication}

X = 385
