A recipe called for the ratio of sugar to flour to be 8 : 7.If you used 48 ounce of sugar, how many ounces of flour would you need to use?

42 ounces of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 48

7 - x

When you cross multiply, you get:

8x = 7*48

8x = 336

x = 336/8

x = 42

Feel free to mark this as brainliest! :D

in problems involving proportions, we can use cross products to test whether two ratios are equal and form a proportion. to find the cross products of a proportion, we multiply the outer terms, called the extremes, and the middle terms, called the means.
