Nick uses 1/4 cup of vinegar for every 1 cup of olive oil when making salad dressing.
Using this recipe, how much vinegar would he need to make salad dressing with 12 cups of olive oil?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3 cups of vinegar

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ Nick uses the amount of vinegar for every 1 cup of olive oil = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] cup

∴ He will need the amount of vinegar for 12 cups of olive oil = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\times 12[/tex] cups

                                                                                                 = 3 cups

Therefore, Nick will need 3 cups of vinegar to make salad dressing.
