If 1 cup of strawberries is enough for 3/4 of the cake, proportionately, Mai needs 1¹/₃ cups of strawberries for the whole cake.
Proportion shows the ratio of one variable to another, showing how much a variable contains the whole.
In other words, a proportion is a portion of a whole number.
Proportions are represented in decimals, fractions, or percentages.
1 cup of strawberries = 3/4 of the cake
3/4 of the cake = 75% or 0.75
The number of cups required for 4/4 of the cake = 1¹/₃ cups (1/0.75)
Thus, the number of cups of strawberries that Mai needs for the whole cake is 1¹/₃ cups.
