Question

A recipe for 2 dozen whole-wheat requires 600g of flour. How many muffins can be made with 900g of flour?

Answer 1

when we have a proportion it is defined as

$\frac{a}{b}=k\cdot\frac{c}{d}$

what this means is that we have a constant of proportionality which means that is the same term

$\frac{8}{9}=\frac{16}{17}$

there is not a proportion between both sides menaning that the expression is false.
