Paul is making banana bread. The number of cup of bananas he uses is proportional to the number of loaves of bread. Paul uses 11 1/4 cups of bananas to make 5 loaves of bread. Which equation represent the relationship between c, the number of cups of bananas, and , the number of loaves of bread?
Accepted Solution
A:
Let c----------> the number of cups of bananas l----------> the number of loaves of bread
we know that 11 1/4------> (11*4+1)/4-----> 45/4
Paul uses (45/4) cups of bananas to make-------> 5 loaves of bread then 1 cup of banana------------------------------------> X X=(1*5)/(45/4)--------> x=20/45--------> 4/9 loaves of bread
so the equation that represent the relationship between c, and l is c=(4/9)*l
