Fred is making a fruit salad. The ratio
of cups of peaches to cups of cherries
is 2 to 3. How many cups of peaches
will Fred need to make 60 cups of
fruit salad?

24 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Peaches to Cherries is given as 2 to 3

We can think of this as "parts". So total parts in the salad would be:

Total Part = 2 + 3 = 5 parts

So, now we need cups of peaches to cups of TOTAL

The ratio would be:

2 : 5

The total would be 60 cups

We let total cup of peaches be x

So we can write the ratio:

Now, we cross multiply and solve for x:

Fred will need 24 cups of peaches

when studying polynomials, you often hear the terms zeros, roots, factors and x x the multiplicity of a zero is important because it tells us how the graph of the let's look at the graph of a function that has the same zeros
