A baker has three banana muffins recipes. Recipe a used 3 banana to make 12 muffins. Recipe b uses 5 banana to make 24 muffins. Recipe c uses 11 banana to make 48 muffins?
Recipe A would have used 0.25 of a banana per muffin. You get this answer by divide the number of bananas by the number of muffins. 3 ÷ 12 = 0.25. Recipe B would have used 0.208 of a banana per muffin. 5 ÷ 24 = 0.20833333 ( a lot of threes ) so you round down ( because 3 is less than 5 ) which gives you approximately 0.208. Recipe C would have used 0.2292 of a banana per muffin. 11 ÷ 48 = 0.22916666 ( a lot of sixes ) so you round up ( because 6 is more than 5 ) which gives you approximately 0.2292.
