Question

Sharon learned a total of 8 appetizer recipes over the course of 4 weeks of culinary school. After how many weeks of culinary school will Sharon know a total of 10 appetizer recipes? Assume the relationship is directly proportional.

Answer 1

After 5 weeks, Sharon will know a total of 10 appetizer recipes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Recipes learned in 4 weeks = 8

Ratio of recipes to weeks = 8:4

Let,

x represents the number of weeks for 10 recipes to be learned.

Ratio of recipes to weeks = 10:x

As the relation is proportional, therefore;

Ratio of recipes to weeks :: Ratio of recipes to weeks

$8:4::10:x$

Product of extreme = Product of mean

$8*x=4*10\\8x=40$

Dividing both sides by 8

$\frac{8x}{8}=\frac{40}{8}\\x=5$

After 5 weeks, Sharon will know a total of 10 appetizer recipes.
