Talia will need 15 Strawberries and 6 Oranges to make 12 servings.
Explanation:
if Talia needs 10 strawberries to make 8 servings than she will need x strawberries to make 12 servings
Therefore (12 x 10)/ 8 = 15
Same thing with Oranges: (12 x 4)/8 = 6

Talia uses 10 strawberries and 4 oranges to make 8 servings of fruit salad.

8 servings need 10 strawberries

1 serving need
(10)/(8)= 1.25 strawberries

12 servings need 12*1.25 = 15 strawberries

We do the same for oranges

8 servings need 4 oranges

1 serving need
(4)/(8)=0.5 oranges

12 servings need 12*0.5 = 6 oranges

So , Talia needs 15 strawberries and 6 oranges to make 12 servings.
