This recipe makes 6 portions of potato soup.
Richard follows the recipe but wants to make 18 portions.
Complete the amounts of each ingredient that he needs.

Answer 1

180 ml oil

240 g onions

1.35 kg potatoes

1.8 l milk

Explanation:

The recipe makes 6 portions and you need 18 portions. Since 6 is 3 times smaller than what you need, just times everything you've been given by 3.

*you can choose to convert into the correct units of measurement before or after dividing. I converted after dividing. Either way works fine though.

1) 60 x 3 = 180 ml

2) 80 x 3 = 240 g

3) 450 x 3 = 1350 g

They want it in kilograms, so divide it by 1,000 to convert. this gives you 1.35 kg.

4) 600 x 3 = 1800 ml

They want it in l, so divide it by 1,000 to convert. this gives you 1.8 l.

Hope this helped : )
