Reply:5 into 75 is 15 so 15 times 8 is 120g ok kid go to the top of class
Reply:75 divided by 5, times 8
Reply:For 5 people, the Amount of Sugar needed = 75 gm

For 1 person, the amount of sugar needed = 75 / 5 = 15 gm

For 8 people, the mount of sugar needed = 15 * 8 = 120 gm



Answer : 120 gm.
Reply:15g per person=120g
Reply:divide 75g by 5, then multiply the answer by 8
Reply:75/5x8
Reply:The easiest way is to do a proportion.....is that what you're working on at school?



x = g of sugar for 8 person cake



5 people / 75 g = 8 people / x g



(It looks better if you write it straight up and down on paper with the 5 right over the 75 and the 8 over the x.)



Now, to solve for x, cross multiply (top of one side times bottom of the other).



5x = 600



Next, divide both sides by 5.



x = 120



So, 120 g of sugar are needed for an 8 person cake.
Reply:120g
Reply:75/5=15
