A recipe that makes 6 cheesecakes called for 3/4 cup of sugar. How many cups of sugar are needed to make 32 cheesecakes?

Respuesta :

For this case we propose a rule of three taking into account that:

6 cakes ----------> [tex]\frac {3} {4}[/tex] cup of sugar

32 cakes --------> x

Where the variable "x" represents the amount of cups of sugar needed for 32 cheesecakes.

[tex]x = \frac {32 * \frac {3} {4}} {6}\\x = \frac {24} {6}\\x = 4[/tex]

Thus, 4 cups of sugar are needed to make 32 cheesecakes.

Answer:

4 cups of sugar
