Answer 1

$2\frac{1}{2}$  lemon will be used to make pineapple sorbet for 40 people.

Step-by-step explanation:

The quantity of ingredients to prepare pineapple sorbet has been given for 8 people.

∵  $\frac{1}{2}$  lemon will be used to prepare the pineapple sorbet = 8 people

∴ 1 lemon will be used to prepare the pineapple sorbet = $\frac{8}{\frac{1}{2} }$

                                                                                            = $8\times\frac{2}{1}$

                                                                                            = 16 people

∴ $2\frac{1}{2}$ lemon will be used to prepare the pineapple sorbet for the people

= $16\times2\frac{1}{2}$

= $16\times\frac{5}{2}$

= 40 people

$2\frac{1}{2}$  lemon will be used to make pineapple sorbet for 40 people.
