hey @slice! in our case, we can use the rule of three any idea what that is?

slice:

I think i need to dived but i forgot which way

Florisalreadytaken:

ok, so we start with this


6 cups of sugar --> 8 pies x cups of sugar --> 12 pies

slice:

plus 4 for each?

Quicksilver0125:

and 6 divided by 8 is .75

Florisalreadytaken:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @slice plus 4 for each? \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) no? how di dyou come up with that?

slice:

nvm i couted wrong

Florisalreadytaken:

\[\frac{ 6 }{ 8 }=\frac{ x }{ 12 }\]

slice:

crss muliply?

Florisalreadytaken:

thus \[6 \times 12 = 8 \times x\]

Florisalreadytaken:

can you finish the rest?

slice:

8 x 14 ?

Quicksilver0125:

it must deal with a decimal

Florisalreadytaken:

what is 6 times 12?

slice:

i got it wrong t many times it showed me it was 9

Florisalreadytaken:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @slice i got it wrong t many times it showed me it was 9 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) lets finish the equation, and we will then get our answer

slice:

it showed me the answer

slice:

9

Florisalreadytaken:

yes, 9 is indeed correct!

slice:

i got it wrong too many times,so the thing told me it was 9

Quicksilver0125:

but how when 8 increased 3 then the sugar increased by 3

Quicksilver0125:

how

Florisalreadytaken:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @slice i got it wrong too many times,so the thing told me it was 9 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) nooo whyy -- we were already solving it

slice:
