Achef uses 4 3/4 cups of broth for 10 servings of soup. how much broth is used in one serving of soup?

Set up a proportion. 4 3/4 cup broth is to 10 servings as x cups broth is to 1 serving soup.

x= amount of broth in one serving

(4 3/4)/10= x/1
cross multiply

(4 3/4)(1)= 10x
convert 4 3/4 to improper fraction

(19/4)(1)= 10x

19/4= 10x
divide both sides by 10

19/4 ÷ 10= x
to divide fractions, multiply by reciprocal of 10

19/4 * 1/10= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators

(19*1)/(4*10)= x

19/40 cup= x

ANSWER: 19/40 cup in one serving

Hope this helps! :)
