Question

A recipe for banana bread requires 3 cups of bananas for every 1 1/2 cups of sugar used. At this rate, how many cups of sugar should be used if 8 cups of bananas are used?

Answer 1

12

Explanation:

3=1 1/2

3/8 = 1.5/x

So you cross multiply

3x + (8 x 1.5)

So 12 would be your answer.
