2 answers:
Answer:
1 1/8 or 9/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Set up a proportion. The proportion will be teaspoons of chili powder over pound of vegetables.
The first proportion will be..
x is 3/4 and y is 1/2. Across from that proportion make another one
x is "n" because you're trying to figure out how much chili powder you need. y is 1 3/4.
Multiply 3/4 and 1 3/4, which is 9/16. Then, divide 9/16 and 1/2, which is 9/8. Simplify it to 1 1/8, and Maxwell will need 1 1/8 teaspoons of chili powder.

Given, there are an average of 150 citizens eat daile in the cafeteria.

So, the amount of discount given to the senior citizens = $1.19 per head.
As there are 150 cinior citizens daily.
So total discount given daily = $ =$
So we have got the required answer.
Option C is correct here.
