A restaurant has a recipe for pizza. For every 2/3 pounds of dough they use 1 1/2 of sauce. How much sauce will be used if the restaurant uses 1 pound of dough

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the concept of cross multiplication we say that if

2/3 pounds equals 1 1/2 sauce

1 pound equals x

By cross multiplications

2/3x=1*1 1/2

Multiplying both sides by 3/2 ie reciprocal of 2/3 to remain with x of LHS then we obtain

X=1 1/2* 3/2=3/2*3/2=9/4=2 1/4 sauce

Therefore, with 1 pound you will make 2 1/4 sauce
