Answer 1

To adjust the fruit squash recipe for 10 people, you can use proportions based on the original recipe for 6 people. Here's how you can calculate the quantities needed for 10 people:

Original Recipe (6 people):

Oranges (chopped): 300 g

Lemonade: 1500 ml

Orange juice: 750 ml

Now, we'll find out how much of each ingredient is needed for 10 people by calculating the proportion:

Oranges (chopped):

Original quantity for 6 people: 300 g

Proportion for 10 people: (300 g / 6) x 10 = 500 g

So, for 10 people, you would need 500 grams of chopped oranges.

Lemonade:

Original quantity for 6 people: 1500 ml

Proportion for 10 people: (1500 ml / 6) x 10 = 2500 ml

So, for 10 people, you would need 2500 ml of lemonade.

Orange juice:

Original quantity for 6 people: 750 ml

Proportion for 10 people: (750 ml / 6) x 10 = 1250 ml

So, for 10 people, you would need 1250 ml of orange juice.

Now, for Kristy's breakfast cereal recipe:

Oats: 50 grams

Raisins: 30 grams

Nuts: 40 grams

These quantities are already given, so you can use them as they are for Kristy's recipe.
