Question 398037: In this school assignment we are going over Exponents and Polynomials, Rational Expressions and Functions. My homework assignment for this week is: “Find or share a favorite recipe that was written for 4 servings. Then choose three ingredients from the recipe and using proportions, show how you can convert these ingredients for 6 servings”. In the above mentioned algebra expressions how would you do this and if not with those what other algebra expression would you use?
Your help would be sincerely appreciated.

You need 6 for every 4: . So multiply everything by . Of course, this gets a little dicey when the recipe for 4 calls for 1 egg -- my personal solution to that one is to use one jumbo egg.
