Question

Maestro Del Valle is baking bars to bring to school and share with his

class for MAP testing. The recipe requires 2 eggs for every 5 cups of
5
sugar. To have enough bars for the whole class, Del Valle determined
that he would need 10 eggs. If he bought 20 cups of sugar, does he
have enough sugar to make the bars?

Answer 1

2 eggs and 5 cups sugar

double both equally

4eggs and 10 cups sugar

6 eggs and 15 cups sugar

8 eggs and 20 cups of sugar

or take 20 cups of sugar and divide by 5 cups of sugar. you end up with 4. multiply the 2 eggs by 4. Total will be 8 eggs and 20 cups of sugar
