Question

A bakery can make 15 cheesecakes for every 3 blocks of cream cheese. Which tablerepresents the relationship between the number of cheesecakes the bakery makes andthe number of blocks of cream cheese the bakery uses?

Answer 1

If 15 cheesecakes can be made for every 3 blocks of cream cheese

The ratio of cheesecakes made to blocks of cream cheese is

`\begin{gathered} \text{Ratio of cheesecakes to block cream cheese cream} \\ 15\colon3=5\colon1 \end{gathered}`

The ratio shows that 5 cheesecakes is made for one block of cream cheese

For 2 blocks of cheese cream, the number of cheesecakes made is

`=5(2)=10`

For 3 blocks of cream cheese, the number of cheesecakes made is

`=5(3)=15`

The relationship between the cheesecakes and blocks of cream cheese can be shown in the table below,

Hence, the table showing the relationship between the number of cheesecakes and number of block cream cheese is C
