Lisa adds 2 tsp baking soda to 6 lbs of flour how much baking soda should she add to 9 lbs 27,18,9,3

Answer 1

To find out how much baking soda should Lisa add to 9 lbs of flour, we can set up a proportion:

2 tsp baking soda / 6 lbs flour = x tsp baking soda / 9 lbs flour

Cross-multiplying, we get:

2 tsp baking soda * 9 lbs flour = 6 lbs flour * x tsp baking soda

18 tsp baking soda = 6 lbs flour * x tsp baking soda

Dividing both sides by 6 lbs flour, we get:

18 tsp baking soda / 6 lbs flour = x tsp baking soda

Simplifying, we find:

x tsp baking soda = 3 tsp baking soda

So, Lisa should add 3 tsp of baking soda to 9 lbs of flour.
