Question

1. Edward’s recipe for fudge uses a ratio of 2 1/4 cups of nuts to 1/2 lb of fudge.
(a) Use a complex fraction to write a rate comparing the amount of nuts to the amount of fudge.
(b) Use the unit rate to determine how many cups of nuts are needed to make 1 lb of fudge. Show your work.

Answer 1

I think its b

Answer 2

i needhelp with both parts. its two different parts

Answer 3

HI!!

Answer 4

amount of nuts to one pound of fudge is \(4\tfrac{1}{2}\) to \(\frac{1}{2}\)

Answer 5

oops i meant \[4\tfrac{1}{4}:\frac{1}{2}\]

Answer 6

as a complex fraction that is \[\huge \frac{4\tfrac{1}{4}}{\frac{1}{2}}\]

Answer 7

dividing by one half is the same as multiplying by two, so to finish multiply \[2\times 4\tfrac{1}{4}\]

Answer 8

ok thanks

Answer 9

oops
