Question

Lydia used 1/3 pound of peppers and 1/10 pound of cheese to make 3 pizzas. If Lydia uses the same recipe to make 1 pizza, how much cheese is needed?​

Answer 1

Answer: Lydia used 1/3 pound of peppers and 1/10 pound of cheese to make 3 pizzas, which means that she used 1/3 / 3 = 1/9 pound of peppers and 1/10 / 3 = 1/30 pound of cheese per pizza.

If Lydia uses the same recipe to make 1 pizza, she will need 1/9 pound of peppers and 1/30 pound of cheese. Therefore, the amount of cheese needed is 1/30 pound.
