A recipe that serves 6 people requires 210 grams of sugar what is the total amount of sugar needed if the recipe is changed to serve 10 people

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is 350 grams of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

You use a ratio

[tex]\frac{6}{10}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{210}{?}[/tex]

Compare the numerators. Since  

6 ⋅ 35 =210  ,  multiply the denominator  10  by  35  to get  350

.

Answer:

350 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

- 6 people = 120

 10 = ?

- this is how like to use ratios

  6 : 120  

  10 : x

- multiply the numbers in a criss-cross fashion

so,  

- multiply 120*10 and devide by the number multiplying with the unknown ( 6 in this case  )

- (120*10)/6 = 350
