Answer:
31.25 or 31 1/4 cups
Step-by-step explanation:
1 1/4 = 36
x = 900
=> 5/4 = 36
x = 900
Cross multiply
=> 5/4 * 900 = 36 * x
=> 4500/4 = 36x
=> 1125 = 36x
=> 1125 / 36 = 36x / 36
=> 31.25 = x
31.25 = 31 1/4
So, 31.25 or 31 1/4 cups are required for 900 cupcakes.
Figure 1:
3 x 8 x 5 = 120cm³
Figure 2:
2 x 5 x 6 = 60cm³
Total Volume = 120 + 60 = 180cm³
