Question

the number of cups of strawberries and a shortcake recipe is proportional to the number of cubs sugar in a recipe the recipe uses five cups of strawberry / 1 and 1/2 cup of sugar


what is the context of portion ability for the relationship of cubs for strawberries to cups of sugar

Answer 1

number of cups of strawberries in a shortcake recipe is proportional to the number of cups of sugar in the recipe

Let

number of cups of strawberries = x

number of cups of sugar = y

x = ky

Where

k = constant of proportionality

number of cups of strawberries = 5

number of cups of sugar = 1/4

x = ky

5 = k * 1/4

5 = 1/4k

Divide both sides by 1/4

k = 5 ÷ 1/4

= 5 × 4/1

= 20

k = 20

Constant of proportionality, k = 20
