Taylor is mixing fruit punch.The recipe calls for 2 tsp of sugar for each 8oz glass of punch . Taylor has a 3 gal punch bowl.How many cups of sugar are needed to fill the bowl with punch?

Respuesta :

I would put it like this .


Let x be punch bowl

Ratio: (Sugar/glass)

(3) * (2/8) = x

6/8 = x

0.75= x

So you will need 3/4 cups of sugar



Or if easier for you cross multiply the set up same ratio so would look like .


2/8=x/3. Now do cross multiply


2×3=8×x


6=8x


Now divide


6/8=x


You will get 0.75 which is 3/4 cups
