Answer 1

Given:

Chef Rita is cooking for a Sunday brunch.

She knows that 22 pancakes can feed 8 people.

To find:

How many people can Rita feed with 55 pancakes?

Solution:

Rita knows that 8 people can eat → 22 pancakes

We will first find the no. of pancakes eaten by 1 person i.e.,

Rita can feed 1 person →   $\frac{22}{8} \:pancakes = \frac{11}{4} \:pancakes$

Now, assuming that each person eats the same quantity of pancakes then,

Rita can feed 55 pancakes to,

=   $\frac{4}{11} \times 55$

=   $4 \times 5$

=  $\bold{20}$

Thus, Rita can feed 20 people with 55 pancakes.
