a baker needs 3/5 cup of water 2/3 cup flour using this ratio how much flour is needed for 1/3 cup water?


10/27 cup

3/10 cup

2/15 cup

1/36 cup

Answer:

10/27 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

y = how much flour is needed

set up proportion of water to flour equals water to flour

[tex]\frac{3/5}{2/3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1/3}{y}[/tex]

cross-multiply:  3/5 y = 2/9

multiply each side by the reciprocal of 3/5

5/3 · (3/5)y = 2/9 · (5/3)

y = 10/27

Answer: 10/27 cups flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare fractions 3/5 and 1/3:

[tex]\dfrac{3}{5}=\dfrac{3 \times 3}{5 \times 3} =\dfrac{9}{15} \\\\ \dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1 \times 5}{3 \times 5} =\dfrac{3}{15}\\\\\dfrac{3}{15} < \dfrac{9}{15}[/tex]

1/3 is less than 3/5 because 3/15 is less than 9/15.

Find how many times 1/3 is less than 3/5:

[tex]\dfrac{3}{5} \div \dfrac{1}{3} =\dfrac{3}{5} \times \dfrac{3}{1}=\dfrac{9}{5}[/tex]

This means that flour should also be taken 9/5 times less:

[tex]\dfrac{2}{3} \div \dfrac{9}{5} =\dfrac{2}{3} \times \dfrac{5}{9} =\dfrac{10}{27}[/tex]

A bookstore charges a standard rate for paperback or hardback books. The cost of a paperback book is 4 dollars less than the cost of a hardback book.​ Recently, one day of sales totaled ​$1065.10. That day the bookstore sold 51 paperback books and 47 hardback books. Write a system representing this situation. Use the graph to estimate the solution of the system.
