You arrive in london with $400. how many british pounds can you purchase with your us dollars if the conversion is $1.414 per british pound? your goal is to prepare a recipe for a gathering of 21 people. if the original recipe serves 6 people and requires 5 cups of flour, how much flour should you use?

a) You can buy 282.88 British pounds.

b) you should use 17.5 cups of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) You arrive in London with $400. How many British pounds can you purchase with your US dollars if the conversion is $1.414 per British pound?

We can solve this problem by using a rule of three

1.414 dollars --- 1 British pound

400 dollars  ---  x British pounds

We solve for x,

x = 400/1.414 = 282.88

We can buy 282.88 British pounds.

b) Your goal is to prepare a recipe for a gathering of 21 people. If the original recipe serves 6 people and requires 5 cups of flour, how much flour should you use?

Again, we can use a rule of three.

6 people --- 5 cups of flour

21 people --- x cups of flour

We solve for x:

x= (21)(5)/6 = 105/6=17.5

We should use 17.5 cups of flour.
