Answer:

20.9 ounces of rice noodles are required to make 19 servings.

Explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

11 ounce bag = 10 servings

Ration of ounces of rice noodles to servings is:


\frac{\text{Weight of rice noodles}}{\text{Serivings}} = (11)/(10) = 1.1

We have to find ounces of noodles are needed for 19 servings.

Thus, we can write:


\frac{\text{Weight of rice noodles}}{19} = 1.1\\\\\Rightarrow \text{Weight of rice noodles} = 1.1* 19\\\Rightarrow \text{Weight of rice noodles} =20.9\text{ ounces}

Thus, 20.9 ounces of rice noodles are required to make 19 servings.
