Erin is making lemonade, She needs 12 cups
of white sugar to make 8 cups of lemonade.
She has a 32 cup pitcher to fill. How many
cups of sugar will she need?
12 cups of sugar for 8 cups of lemonade then I let 32 cups of lemonade corresponding with x cups of sugar, then 12/8 = x/ 32, then 8x = 32 * 12, then solve for x get 8x = 384, x =48.
