Question

A smoothie recipe calls for 2 cups of juice for every 3 cups of strawberries.

How many cups of strawberries would you need for 48 cups of juice?

Answer 1

You would need 72 cups of strawberries for 48 cups of juice

Explanation:

48 cups of juice divided by 2 cups of juice = 24 cups of juice

24 cups of juice multiplied by 3 cups of strawberries = 72 cups of strawberries needed

ratio: 2 juice for every 3 strawberries, 48 juice for 72 strawberries

Answer 2

72 cups of juice.

48 divided by 2 is 24
24 multiplied by 3 is 72.
