Question

f it takes Sue to make 4 cones for 1 sundae and and Evelyn 5 cones for 3 sundaes f sue makes 4 sundaes, how many sundaes will Evelyn make?

Answer 1

If Sue makes 4 sundaes she will use 16 cones since she uses 4 cones per sundae.

Evelyn uses 5 cones for every 3 sundaes and she has 16 cones to work with. Therefore the calculation would be:\[\frac{5}{3}=\frac{16}{x}\]Just solve for x.

Answer 2

ok

Answer 3

f Sue makes 4 sundaes she will use 16 cones since she uses 4 cones per sundae. Evelyn uses 5 cones for every 3 sundaes and she has 16 cones to work with. Therefore the calculation would be:
5*3=16x
Just solve for x.
x = 5*3/16
x = 15/16

Answer 5

I'm totally confused by what you wrote.

\[\frac{5}{3}=\frac{16}{x}\]\[5x=(16)(3)\]\[x=\frac{(16)(3)}{5}=\frac{48}{5}=9.6\]Since she can't make .6 cones...the can only make 9 full cones.
