Question

Hello, I'd like to receive a little bit of help with this question please. I do not understand it completely. (This is is not an active test, it is a book I am studying in order to take the ASVAB in a couple of weeks.)

Answer 1

Given:

it is given that a cake recipe requires 3/5 of an ounce of vanilla extract.

Find:

we have to find that how many cakes can be made using a package containing 60 ounces of vanilla extract.

Step-by-step explanation:

from the given statment , we onserved that

1 cake recipe requires 3/5 = 0.6 ounce of vanilla extract

10 cake recipes requires 10 *(0.6) = 6 ounces of vanilla extract

100 cake recipes require 100*(0.6) = 60 ounces of vanilla extract.

Therefore, we can make 100 cakes using a package containing 60 ounces of vanilla extract
