If 35 pounds of turkey will feed 63 people, then how many pounds of turkey would be needed for only 9 people at the same rate?

5 pound for 9 people or 5:9

Step-by-step explanation:

35 pound for 63 people, so write that as a ratio 35/63.  

35/63 so divide top and bottom by 7 because 63/7=9, so 35/7=5 so your ratio become 5 pounds/9 people or 5:9.

Hi!

We will solve this using proportions, like this:

35 pound of turkey feeds 63 people

x pounds of turkey feeds 9 people

x = (35*9)/63

x = 315/63

x = 5

5 pounds of turkey would be needed for only 9 people.

Hope this helps!
