A recipe calls for 2/9 cup of flour for every 1 2/5 cup of milk. To make a bigger batch, the chef uses 2 cups of flour.
Which of the following would be the amount of milk needed for the bigger batch?
12 1/5 cups
12 3/5 cups
8 1/25 cups
10 3/25 cups
Correct Answer : B
The number of cups of milk to make a bigger batch, we proceed as follows:
First convert the mixed number 1 2/5 as
Then, we let the unknown number of cups of milk to be x and we set a proportion equation with number cups of floor as numerator and cups of milk as denominator
Find the value of x by cross-products
2 as a fraction is 2/1 which is then used to find the product of the numerator as follows.
Per means division. The above equation becomes
When dividing fractions, we multiply the first fraction with the reciprocal of the second. The reciprocal of 2/9 is 9/2. Thus
The numbers of cups of milk required is 63/5, which when converted to mixed fraction becomes 12 3/5.

Given:
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder for every ½ cup of flour.
- We are using 5 cups of flour.
Step 1: Determine how many teaspoons are needed per cup of flour.
Since the recipe calls for 2 teaspoons for every ½ cup of flour, the number of teaspoons required for 1 full cup of flour would be:
2 teaspoons×2=4 teaspoonspercup.
Step 2: Calculate how many teaspoons are needed for 5 cups of flour.
Now, multiply the number of teaspoons needed for 1 cup of flour by 5:
4 teaspoonspercup×5 cups=20 teaspoons.
Thus, the number of teaspoons of baking powder needed for 5 cups of flour is 20 teaspoons.
Therefore, the correct answer is D. 20 tsp.

The median of a data set is a number that falls in the middle of the data set. To find the median, the numbers in the data set are arranged from the smallest to the largest. In the given data set, the organized arrangement is:
-5, -1, 0, 3, 9
There are five elements in the data set, and the median falls in the third position from either side. Thus, 0 falls in the third position.
Correct Answer is B
Explanation
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.
