Question

If it takes a fourth of a cup of oil to make 10 cookies, how much oil would it take to make 50 cookies? ?

Answer 1

It would take 4 1/4’s

Answer 2

5/4 or 1 1/4 cup of oil

Explanation:

Let's make a ratio. 1/4:10. We need to multiply 10 by 5 to get 50 cookies and do the same on the other side of the ratio. 1/4x5=5/4 or 1 1/4 and 10x5 is 50. So our final ratio would be 5/4:50. Hope this helped.
