4 cups of pasta are used per cup of sauce.
Given,
Greta uses 3 cups of pasta for every 3/4 cup of sauce.
We need to find how much pasta she uses per cup of sauce.
Example:
12 apples = 2 basket ____(1)
For 5 baskets:
We need to make 2 baskets = 5 baskets.
We can divide by 2 and multiply 5 on both sides on (1).
5/2 x 12 apples = 5/2 x 2 baskets
30 apples = 5 baskets.
We have,
3 cups of pasta = 3/4 cup of sauce
We need to make 3/4 cup of sauce as 1 cup of sauce.
Multiply 4/3 on both sides.
4/3 x 3 cups of pasta = 4/3 x 3/4 cup of sauce
4 cups of pasta = 1 cup of sauce
Thus 4 cups of pasta are used per cup of sauce.
