Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
Use a proportion
[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{x}{48}[/tex]
8*6=48
So if we multiply 3*6, we get how many liters it takes to serve 48 people
3*6=18
The answer would be 18 L
You do this by doing 48/8= 6
The reason you do 48 / 8 is because you you want to find out how many liters you need so if a 3L serves 8 people you would have to divid 48 into 8. (hope that makes since)
6 x 3 = 18L
Then take the 6 and times that by the 3 getting a total of 18 liters
(Hope this makes since :D)
