20 oz of salmon is needed for 32 servings

50 oz of salmon needed for 80 servings

62.5 oz of salmon needed for 100 servings

Solution:

Given that,

One roll can be cut into 8 servings

The ingredients for one roll include sushi rice, seaweed sheets, cucumbers, cream cheese, and 5oz of smoked salmon

1 roll is 8 servings and it is made of 5 oz of smoked salmon

Which means that, 5 oz of smoked salmon is needed fo 8 servings

Write an expression for the amount of salmon needed to make s serving of sushi

$Amount\ of\ salmon = \frac{5}{8}s$

Where, s = serving

How much salmon is needed to make ?16 servings

$Amount\ of\ salmon = \frac{5}{8} \times 16 = 5 \times 2 = 10$

Thus 10 oz of salmon is needed for 16 servings

32 servings

$Amount\ of\ salmon = \frac{5}{8} \times 32 = 5 \times 4 = 20\ oz$

Thus 20 oz of salmon is needed for 32 servings

80 servings

$Amount\ of\ salmon = \frac{5}{8} \times 80 = 5 \times 10 = 50\ oz$

Thus 50 oz of salmon needed for 80 servings

100 servings

$Amount\ of\ salmon = \frac{5}{8} \times 100 = 5 \times 12.5 = 62.5\ oz$

Thus 62.5 oz of salmon needed for 100 servings
