A recipe calls for 3 cups of flour for every 5 eggs. How many cups of flour do you need for every 1 egg?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up a proportion using this setup.

We know that 3 cups of flour are needed for every 5 eggs.

We don't know how many cups are needed for 1 egg, so we say x cups for 1 egg.

We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. x is being divided by 1. The inverse of division is multiplication, so multiply both sides by 1.

For every 1 egg, 3/5 or 0.6 cups of flour are needed.

48 / 6 = x

in this case, x will equal the amount of money in each card!

x therefore will be 8.

trent had $8 in each birthday card.

(x) - (y) = (1 + 4i)
