Use the drown-down menus to complete the answer. Chandra needs to make 3 gallons of punch. Since there are 16 cups in a gallon, 3 gallons of punch is equivalent to Choose cups of punch. Since the original recipe makes 6 cups of punch and Chandra needs to make Choose cups of punch, she will need to multiply the amount of each ingredient in the original recipe by Choose in order to have enough punch. Since the original recipe calls for 1 cup of frozen strawberries, Chandra will need to use Choose cups of frozen strawberries.

Answer 1

To make 3 gallons of punch, Chandra will need 48 cups of punch (3 gallons x 16 cups/gallon = 48 cups).

Since the original recipe makes 6 cups of punch and Chandra needs to make 48 cups of punch, she will need to multiply the amount of each ingredient by 8 (48 cups/6 cups = 8).

Therefore, Chandra will need 8 cups of frozen strawberries (1 cup x 8 = 8 cups).
