Mrs Sogiba is catering for her son's birthday party. She has invited some of her son's friends to the
party. The number of friends is a composite multiple
of her son's age on his birthday. She has baked
48 cupcakes and each child will receive exactly the
same number of cupcakes. Use your knowledge of
multiples and factors to find out how old her son
will be on his birthday.
(This is not his first birthday party.)

d

step-by-step explanation:

hello and welcome!

so, when we see the words "proportional" along with a table, we need to know that we're looking numbers that divide by the same thing.

looking at this table, we simply have to do a trial and error, and divide to see which numbers have the same quotient. if you look at choice a & c, they both have equal quotients for three of the numbers, with one exception, so those can't be the answer. looking at b, there is no similarity, so that can't be it. then, we see d; if you divide all the numbers in the table, you'll see that they all divide by two, which is a proportional relationship, and our answer!

also, always remember that the x will always be the number that goes into y, and somewhere behind this table, is a formula. for this specific table, the formula would be:

since our x-value is being divided by two to get the y-value. and if they were to ask for more numbers in the series, this is the formula you would use to find them.

its a trick question
