Desiree is making guacamole for a party. The recipe she is using calls for 1/4 cup lime juice for every 4 avocados. If she plans to use 1 cups of lime juice, how many avocados does she need

Answer 1

If 1/4 cup of lime juice is used for every 4 avocados, then the ratio of lime juice to avocados is 1/4:4.
To find how many avocados are needed for 1 cup of lime juice, we can set up a proportion: (1/4)/4 = (1)/x
Multiplying both sides by x, we get: (1/4)*x = 4
Dividing both sides by 1/4, we get: x = 4*(4/(1/4))
Simplifying the expression inside the parentheses, we get: x = 4*16 = 64
Therefore, Desiree needs 64 avocados. Answer: \boxed{64}.
