A solid dressing recipe includes 4/5 cup of lime juice for every 2 cups of Greek yogurt. How many cups of lime juice does Marquez need for 3 cups of Greek yogurt?

Answer:

1 1/5

Explanation:

So first we need to realize that 4/5 can be turned into 8/10. Plus since they need 3 cups, not 2 (which we have been provided with the cups for) then we have to split it in half. So it would be 8/10 + 4/10. Which is 12/10 or 1 2/10 or 1 1/5

Hope this makes sense!!!
