A baker is making bread dough. He uses 3 cups of flour for every 8 ounces of water. How many cups of flour will he use if he uses 96 ounces of water? *

Answer :

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the fraction we use to solve this problem [tex]\frac{Ounces}{Flour}[/tex]

Fractions are [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex] and [tex]\frac{96}{x}[/tex]

We now ask ourselves

[tex]8 * x = 96\\x = 12[/tex]

Since whatever we do to the numerator we have to to the same to the denominator, we multiply 3 and 12

[tex]3 * 12 = x\\x = 36[/tex]

Hope this helps!
