Marvin uses apples to make apple bread. the ratio of apples to loaves is 12: 2. what is the equivalent ratio for 5 loaves of bread? explain how you know.

12:2 can be written as 12/2apples is ur numerator and loaves is ur denominator. So 5 loavesloaves is ur denominator...

12/2 = a/5
proportion...so we cross multiply
2a = 60
a = 60/2
a = 30

so when there is 5 loaves, there is 30 apples
the equivalent ratio is 30/5 or 30:5
