Respuesta :

Answer:[tex]\dfrac{b}{6}[/tex] cups of spinach

Step-by-step explanation:

We use unitary method to solve this question.

The unitary method is a method to solve a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Given that Freund requires [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] cups of spinach for [tex]3[/tex] cups of strawberry.

So,Freund requires [tex]\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{3} =\frac{1}{6}[/tex] cups of spinach for [tex]1[/tex] cup of strawberry.

So,for [tex]b[/tex] cups of strawberries,[tex]b\times \frac{1}{6}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{b}{6}[/tex] of spinach are needed.
