The amount of calories in a bag of skittles follows the ratio

160:40

To determine how much calories does 80grams of skittles have you have to do as follows.

80 grams is the double of 40grams, so multiply the mount of calories by 2 and you'll have the calories that 80 grams of skittles have:

160*2=320calories

So 80gr of skittles have 320 calories

The recipe of the coockies calles for

-3eggs

-2cups of flour

To determine the amount of eggs needed for 8 cups of flour, you can use cross multiplcation

If 2 cups flour use 3 eggs

8 cups of flour use x egs

`\begin{gathered} (3)/(2)=(x)/(8) \\ ((3)/(2))\cdot8=x \\ x=12 \end{gathered}`

She'll need a dozen eggs for 8 cups of flour
