Desiree is making guacamole for a party. The recipe she is using calls for 1/4 cup lime juice for every 4 avocados. If she plans to use 1 cup of lime juice, how many avocados does she need?(1 point)
avocados
To determine the number of avocados Desiree needs, we need to find the ratio of lime juice to avocados in the recipe.
The ratio is 1/4 cup of lime juice for every 4 avocados.
If she plans to use 1 cup of lime juice, this is equivalent to 4 times the ratio mentioned.
So, for 1 cup of lime juice, she needs 4 times the number of avocados in the ratio, which is 4 * 4 = <<4*4=16>>16 avocados. Answer: \boxed{16}.
