What is the answer
To find out how many peanuts are needed for 3 cups of raisins, we can use the given ratio between raisins and peanuts.
The ratio of raisins to peanuts is 3/4 cup of raisins for every 5/8 cup of peanuts.
To simplify the ratio, we can multiply both parts of the ratio by a common factor that makes the denominators equal. In this case, the least common multiple of 4 and 8 is 8. So, multiplying both parts of the ratio by 8 gives us:
(3/4) * 8 = (3 * 8) / 4 = 24/4 = 6
Therefore, there are 6 cups of peanuts needed for 3 cups of raisins.
I don’t know I’m a editing
I like a person called Blake carton
(3/4)/(5/8) = 3/x
Cross multiply and solve for x.
