Answer 9

i got ya. i think of it like this. 6 servings equals 1/3 of a cup.
3 servings more is an extra half serving of sugar. OR 1/3/2 = 1/6
1/3 + 1/6.
find the gcf and add them up

Answer 10

6 servings : 1/3 cup

Find the unit amount per serving. This is what Zie is trying to tell you

Divide by 6

6/6 = 1 serving : (1/3)/6 = 1/18 cup

Find the required amount.

Multiply by 9

9*1 = 9 servings : 9*(1/18) = 1/2 cup

Alternatively, use the phrase "half again as much". This is 150% or 1.5

Multiply by 1.5

6*1.5 = 9 servings : (1/3)*1.5 = (1/3)(3/2) = 1/2 cup

A recipe for 1 lb of trail mix calls for 3.2 oz of cashews.



How many ounces of cashews are needed to make 4 lb of trail mix?

Answer 14

same concept. What you do to one side, you do to the other.

1lb =3.2oz
you want 4lbs so..
1*4 lbs = 3.2 *4 oz cashews

Answer 15

do i do 3.2*1=3.2/4=0.8 oh i did it wrong so then once i do 3.2*4 that will be the answer

Answer 16

right

Answer 17

In the second case, you already have the unit amount. There is no need to find it!!

Answer 18

ok so then 12.8oz is the answer

Answer 19

right

Answer 20
