4 cups of cranberries.
cra

6 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

If you need 12 cups of sugar for every 16 cups of cranberries, for 4 cups of cranberries you'll need 6 cups of sugar.

Here's the working:

12 cups of sugar = 16 cups of cranberries

4 cups of cranberries is 1/2 the amount of 16 cups of cranberries so we have to divide by 1/2

12 cups of sugar ÷ 2 = 6 cups of sugar

3 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that you need 12 cups of sugar for every 16 cups of cranberries.

If you have 4 cups of cranberries.

we first need to find the ratio:

16/4 = 4

So 4 cups of cranberries is a fourth of 16 cups, so if we use a fourth of the 16 cups, we also need to use a fourth of the 12 cups of sugar, then we need:

12/4 = 3 cups of sugar

answer: h

step-by-step explanation:

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
