Beverly made a root beer float using 1/4 cup of vanilla ice cream for every 3/4 cup of root beer. how much ice cream would Beverly need for one cup of root beer?

Respuesta :

Answer:

1/3 cup of ice icream

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a proportions question. Since we know that we need 1/4 cup of ice cream for every 3/4 cup of root beer, we need to find how many cups of ice cream we need for 1 cup of root bear.

We need to find out what times 3/4 makes 1. This can be done with:

(3/4)x = 1

x = 4/3

Now multiply that with 1/4 to get the amount of ice cream.

4/3 times 1/4 = 1/3
