recipe says that 2 cups of rice will serve 6 people. Determine how many people can be served with 10 cups of rice and how many cups of rice you need to serve 45 people. Cups of Rice i need answers

10 cups for 30 people

15 cups for 45 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a ratio problem and we only need to find the value of one variable (how many people can be served) then we can use the Rule of Three to solve this problem like so...

2 cups  <>  6 people

10 cups <>  x people

(10*6) / 2 = x ... cross multiply the two available numbers and divide by the third

30 people = x

We can now see that 10 cups of rice can feed 30 people ... Now we can use the same process to find the number of cups needed for 45 people.

2 cups  <>  6 people

x cups <>  45 people

(45*2) / 6 = x

15 cups = x

just take the area of the square and then the area of the circle then subtract the circle area from the squares area
