A baker is using a cookie recipe that call for 2 ¼ cups of flour to yield 40 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 90 cookies using the same recipe?
6 7/18 cups
5 5/18 cups
2 3/16 cups
5 1/16 cups
Correct Answer : D
We are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 90 cookies.
First, we convert 2 ¼ into improper fraction as:

Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:

Solve the value of x by cross-products

Dividing both sides by 60, the above equation result to

Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 90 cookies is 81/16 cups, which is equal to 5 1/16 cups.

To find the median of a data set, we need to first order the data from least to greatest, then find the middle value.
Step 1: Order the data from least to greatest:
The original data set is:
12,19,7,14,22,26,15
Ordered from least to greatest:
7,12,14,15,19,22,26
Step 2: Find the middle value
Since there are 7 numbers (an odd number of data points), the median will be the middle value, which is the 4th number in the ordered list.
7,12,14,15,19,22,26
The middle value is 15.
Conclusion:
The median of the data set is 15.
The correct answer is B. 15.

To find the area of the room, we form an equation of find an equation relating the length and width of the rectangle. If we let the width of the room to be w, then
Width of the rectangle= w
Length of rectangle=(w+5)
Area of the rectangle, A= Length*width=(w+5)*w
A=w(w+5)
Thus, the area of the rectangular room is w(w+5).

Correct Answer is A
Explanation
we are asked to find the number of gallons a full tank can hold. A full tank is equivalent to 1.
Convert the mixed fraction into proper fraction as follows
(2frac{2}{5}=frac{left(2ast5 ight)+2}{5}=frac{10+2}{5}=frac{12}{5})
If we let x be the number of gallons in full tank, and setting up the proportion equation with the number of gallons on the numerator and fraction of tank on denominator as follows.
(frac{x gallons}{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
Cross-multiply to find the value of x.
(frac{x }{1 full tank}=frac{frac{12}{5} gallons}{frac{4}{7}full tank})
(x astfrac{4}{7}full tank=frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank)
(x =frac{frac{12}{5} gallonsast1 full tank}{frac{4}{7}full tank}=frac{12}{5}divfrac{4}{7} gallons=frac{12}{5}astfrac{7}{4}gallons=frac{21}{5}gallons)
Converting 21/5 to a mixed fraction is 4 1/5. Thus, when the tank is full, it holds 4 1/5 gallons of water.
