Represent the number of apple cobblers needed with x.
So, we have:
[tex]x \to 24[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]x * 3 = 16 * 24[/tex]
Divide by 3
[tex]x = 16 * 8[/tex]
[tex]x = 128[/tex]
The ratio is given as:
[tex]8 \to 2[/tex]
Represent the number of peach cobblers with y.
So, we have:
[tex]y \to 18[/tex]
Cross multiply
[tex]y * 2 =8 * 18[/tex]
Divide by 2
[tex]y =8 * 9[/tex]
[tex]y =72[/tex]
Hence, the 72 peaches are needed for 18 peach cobblers
