27 cups  green pepper uses for making salsa .

Option (B) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The salsa recipe uses green pepper, onion and tomato in the extended ration 3:7:11.

Let us assume that the x be the scalar multiple .

Green pepper used for making salsa = 3x

Onion used for making salsa = 7x

Tomato used for making salsa = 11x

As given

green pepper, onion and tomato are used for making 189 cups of salsa .

Eqution becomes

3x + 7x + 11x = 189

21x = 189

x = 9

Thus

Green pepper used for making salsa = 3x

                                                              = 3 × 9

                                                              = 27 cups

Therefore 27 cups  green pepper uses for making salsa .

Option (B) is correct .
