Question

Megan uses cup of almonds to make 4 cups of trail mix. Using this
same proportion, how many cups of almonds would Megan need to make
9 cups of trail mix?

Answer 1

Answer:
2 1/4 cups

Step by step:
First we can set up a ratio (1:4). Then we can divide both by 4 to find how many cups of almonds per cup of trail mix. We get 0.25:1. Multiply both by 9, and there’s the answer (2.25:9).
