Juli uses 12 ounces of cheese in her potato soup recipe. Her recipe yields 8 servings. If Juli needs enough for 20 servings, how many pounds of cheese will she need? Thanks for the help!

Answer:

30 ounces of cheese

Explanation:

12 divided by 8 = 1.5 so 1.5 ounces of cheese per serving

20 x 1.5 = 30 so 30 ounces of cheese
