Jenny makes food for her hummingbird feeders. The food is made up of 1 part sugar and 4 parts water. She uses 34 3 4 cup of sugar to make the hummingbird food. How much water should Jenny use?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: I am assuming that the 34 3 4 cup of sugar means 34 3/4.

Given:
Ratio of sugar to water is 1:4

34 3/4 sugar to quantity of water.

First, we need to convert the mixed fraction into an improper fraction.

34 3/4 = ((34*4)+3)/4 = 139/4

1:4 = 139/4:x
x = 4*139/4
x = 139

Jenny should use 139 cups of water for the 34 3/4 cups of sugar.
Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

1 part sugar : 4 parts water

3/4 cup of sugar.

1/4 = 3/4 : x

x = 4 * 3/4

x = 12/4

x = 3 part water

Solve the following system. Verify the solution.y = 4x – 11
x = 2y – 13

Answers

y = 4x - 11
x = 2y - 13

    x = 2(4x - 11)- 13
    x = 2(4x) - 2(11) - 13
    x = 8x - 22 - 13
    x = 8x - 35
- 8x - 8x       
 -7x = -35
 -7       -7
     x = 5
y = 4x - 11
y = 4(5) - 11
y = 20 - 11
y = 9
(x, y) = (5, 9)

A sugar bowl holds 237 grams. You have a one kilogram bag of sugar. Estimate how many bowls of sugar you can fill from the bag.

Answers

Answer:

The required number of bowls are 5.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A sugar bowl holds 237 grams. You have a one kilogram bag of sugar.

To find : Estimate how many bowls of sugar you can fill from the bag?

Solution :

1 bowl can hold 237 gram of sugar.

We have, 1 kg of sugar or 1000 gram of sugar.                

According to question,

237 gram of sugar can hold in 1 bowl.

So, 1 gram of sugar can hold in (1)/(237) bowl.

1000 gram of sugar can hold in (1000)/(237) bowl.      

1000 gram of sugar can hold in 4.21 bowl.  

Which means, The required number of bowls are 5.

As 4 bowls have237* 4=948 grams of sugar.

Sugar left is 1000-948=52 grams

That 52 grams is filled into 5th bowl.
