1 answer

If 1/4 cup of lime juice is needed for every 4 avocados, then Desiree will need to use 1/4 cup of lime juice for every 4 avocados.

Therefore, if she plans to use 1 cup of lime juice, she will need 4 times the amount.

1 cup of lime juice = 1/4 cup of lime juice per 4 avocados
4 cups of lime juice = 4 * (1/4 cup of lime juice per 4 avocados)

Simplifying, we find that Desiree will need 1 cup of lime juice for 16 avocados.
