Answer:

56 kg meat would be needed to serve 480 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A recipe that serves 12 people uses 1.4 kg of meat.

To Find:

How much meat would be needed to serve 480 people?

Let us assume:

x kg meat would be needed to serve 480 people.

Finding the value of x:

According to the question.

People : Meat = People : Meat

⟶ 12 : 1.4 = 480 : x

⟶ 12/1.4 = 480/x

Cross multiplication.

⟶ 12x = 480 × 1.4

⟶ 12x = 672

⟶ x = 672/12

⟶ x = 56

Hence,

56 kg meat would be needed to serve 480 people.
