En una panadería, con 60 kilos de harina se hacen 80 kilos de pan. ¿Cuántos kilos de pan se harán con 150 kilos de harina?

Seleccione una opción:

A. 200 kilos de pan
B. 320 kilos de pan
C. 170 kilos de pan
D. 112.5 kilos de pan
E. 132 kilos de pan

Answer :

We start with the information that with [tex]$60$[/tex] kilograms of flour, the bakery produces [tex]$80$[/tex] kilograms of bread. This gives us the conversion factor (or ratio) of bread produced per kilogram of flour:

[tex]$$
\text{Conversion factor} = \frac{80}{60} = \frac{4}{3} \approx 1.3333
$$[/tex]

This means that for every kilogram of flour, approximately [tex]$1.3333$[/tex] kilograms of bread are produced.

Now, if the bakery has [tex]$150$[/tex] kilograms of flour available, the amount of bread produced can be calculated by multiplying the amount of flour by the conversion factor:

[tex]$$
\text{Bread produced} = 150 \times \frac{4}{3} = 150 \times 1.3333 \approx 200 \text{ kilograms}
$$[/tex]

Thus, with [tex]$150$[/tex] kilograms of flour, the bakery will produce [tex]$200$[/tex] kilograms of bread.
