Respuesta :
Number of cups of batter in the bowl = 20.5
As stated, this 20.5 represents 0.4 of the entire amount of batter needed for a recipe it means ; 0.4 of 20.5 = x
Let x represents the amount of batter needed for recipe
So, [tex]0.4\times20.5=8.2[/tex]
Hence , 8.2 cups of batter are needed for the recipe.
Answer: 51.25 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
From the statement above, 20.5 cups is 0.4 of the entire amount of batter
let x = the total amount of batter.
Interpreting the above question mathematically;
0.4 of x = 20.5
0.4 × x = 20.5
0.4x = 20.5
divide both-side of the equation by 0.4, in order for the x variable to stand alone
0.4x/0.4 = 20.5/0.4
x = 51.25
Therefore 51.25 cups of batter are needed.
