Orly uses 2 cups of raisins for every 8 cups of trail mix she makes how many cups of trail mix will she make if she uses 12 cups of raisins
Orly uses 2 cups of raisins for every 8 cups of trail mix she makes. How many cups of trail mix will she make if she uses 10 cups of raisins?
48 - 12/2 = 6 batches of trail mix. 8 cups in a batch, so 8x6 = 48.
To find out how many cups of trail mix Orly will make if she uses 12 cups of raisins, we can set up a proportion based on the given information.
Let's set up the proportion:
2 cups of raisins / 8 cups of trail mix = 12 cups of raisins / X cups of trail mix
Now, cross-multiply the values:
2 cups of raisins * X cups of trail mix = 12 cups of raisins * 8 cups of trail mix
2X = 96
Divide both sides of the equation by 2:
2X / 2 = 96 / 2
X = 48
Therefore, Orly will make 48 cups of trail mix if she uses 12 cups of raisins.
1r for 4 t
12 r *(4t/1r) = 48 t
