Answer 1

Answer:

Chopped tomatoes

= 3/4 x 800 = 600g

Stock

= 3/4 x 600 = 450 ml

Red wine

= 3/4 x 300 = 225 ml

Answer 2

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, you will need to use proportions to make sure that the ingredients are the correct amounts when the grams of minced beef is decreased.

Chopped tomatoes

$\frac{400g beef}{800 g tomatoes} =\frac{300g beef}{x}$             [cross multiply]

$400x=240000$                         [divide both sides by 400]

$x=600g$

We will need 600 g chopped tomatoes.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Stock

$\frac{400g beef}{600ml stock} =\frac{300gbeef}{x}$               [cross multiply]

$400x=180000$                         [divide both sides by 400]

$x=450$

We will need 450 ml of stock.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Red wine

$\frac{400g}{300ml} =\frac{300g}{x}$                            [cross multiply]

$400x=90000$                           [divide both sides by 400]

$x=225$

We will need 225 ml of red wine.
