Question

Lupe’s chili recipe makes 12 servings and uses 12 green peppers and 4 red peppers. How many Lupe needs for 9 servings

Answer 1

9 green peppers and 3 red peppers

Explanation:

She is making 9 servings compared to the original recipe which calls for 12. This means she is making 9/12 of it:

9/12(12) = 108/12 = 9 green peppers

9/12(4) = 36/12 = 3 red peppers

Answer 2

Hello There!

12/12 = 1
4/12 = 0.333333

1 x 9 = 9
(4/12) x 9 = 3

Lupe would need 9 green peppers and 3 green peppers.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
