Question

A bread recipe calls for a flour to water ratio of 10 to 7. If 600 grams of flour is used in this recipe, how many grams of water need to be added. Use the number line below to illustrated how you found your answer.

Answer 1

420 Grams of water will be needed.

Explanation:

Sorry I don't see a number line but I'll try to explain ; Because the ratio of flour to water is 10 to 7 and there's a total of 600 grams, you divide the 600 by 10 which then gets you 60 (this will be your constant or whatever you call it i forgot). You then multiply 7 by 60 and you will get an answer of 420 grams of water!

I hope this helped!! :DD

Answer 2

Grams of water
= (600/10) x 7
= 420
