thanks for helpingYou have this ratio.
Fluid : Water
2 : 5
What number if you multiply it by [MATH]2[/MATH] gives you [MATH]12[/MATH]? The same number multiply it by [MATH]5[/MATH] to get the answer
The logic is Like thatthanks for helping
6 * 2 =12
6*5=30
30 cups
I do not know the reason, though. the 'why 6* 2'.
thanks!
I like this even betterYou can also think of it like a equation.
[MATH]\frac{5}{2} = \frac{x}{12}[/MATH]
It is read like this, if [MATH]5[/MATH] waters need [MATH]2[/MATH] fluids, how many [MATH]x[/MATH] waters need [MATH]12[/MATH] fluids. Solve for [MATH]x[/MATH].
You're welcomeWow, that was good. Thanks a lot
