Ni’Kieylah uses 3 cups of sugar for every 2 teaspoons of baking soda to make a batch of cookies. Which proportion could be solved to find x, the number of teaspoons of baking soda needed for 9 cups of sugar?(1 point)
whats the porportion
The proportion that can be set up to solve for x is:
3 cups sugar / 2 teaspoons baking soda = 9 cups sugar / x teaspoons baking soda
This can be written as:
3/2 = 9/x
Solving for x:
3x = 18
x = 6
Therefore, 6 teaspoons of baking soda are needed for 9 cups of sugar.
