Create equivalent ratios If a lemonade recipe requires 2 cups of sugar for every 6
quarts of lemon juice, how many cups of sugar would be
required for 9 quarts of lemon juice?

3

Step-by-step explanation:

    6 cups  require 2 cups

    9 cups requirex

Cross multiplication

9x2 = 6x

18 = 6x

x= 3

 Another way to think about:

6 + half of 6 = 9

   Then

2+ and half of 2 = 3

       6 is 3 times more than 2

        9 is 3 times bigger than 3

final total: 63

step-by-step explanation:

60 times sales tax

60 times 0.05

3

60 + 3

63
