A muffin recipe, which yields 12 muffins, calls for 2/3 cup of milk for every 1 3/4 cups of flour. The same recipe calls for 1/4 cup of coconut for every 3/4 cup of chopped apple.

If all ingredients in this recipe are changed proportionately, how many muffins should you yield from a batch that contains 1 1/8 cups of chopped apple?

Respuesta :

The number of muffin can yield is 18.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The recipe needs  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] cup chopped apple.

To find:

Umber of muffins when 1 [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] cup chopped apple is given.

Solution:

1[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ÷  [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = 1.5

1[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] cup apple is 1.5 times of [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] cup of apple

So, the number of muffins will be = 12 × 1.5

= 18

Thus 18 muffins can be yielded from a batch that contains 1 1/8 cups of chopped apple

Answer:

18 muffins

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of muffins

12 muffins are made when:

2/3 cup of milk for every 1 3/4 cups of flour. The same recipe calls for 1/4 cup of coconut for every 3/4 cup of chopped apple.

hence is the question asks for 1 1/8 cups of apple .

we can use cross multiplication of the chopped apples used for 12 muffins and the chopped apples used for ( x) muffins

chopped apples        :              muffins

      3/4                       :                  12

      1 1/8                     :                   x

3/4 x  = 12 * 1 1/8

3/4 x = 13.5

x = 13.5 / (3/4)

x = 18

18 muffins are made when 1 1/8 cups of chopped apples are added
