Explanation:

A request for proposal (RFP) is issued when a company is requesting information from possible vendors that might be able to provide them with the products that they need.

answer; standing committee;

a recipe serves 8 people, and calls for 5 lbs of apples and 2 cups of flour. you want to prepare it for 24 people. divide 24 by 8 to get 3, and then multiply your ingredients by 3.

so for 24 people, you'll need 15 lbs of apples, and 6 cups of flour.
