For each container of tea, she uses 16 tea bags and 3 cups of sugar. If McKenzie uses 64 tea bags, how many cups of sugar will she use?

Question

This question really confuses me..can you please help me?

Answer 1

One big teapot requires 16 teabags & 3 cups of sugar.

 

If that is multiplied by 4, that would be 4 big teapots, requiring 64 teabags & 12 cups of sugar.  (The same proportions of teabags to sugar.)
