PART 2

Today, we wrote down a recipe which serves 4 people. What we had to find out was how much more do we need to add to that recipe to serve 10 people, and 1 person.


To serve 10 people using this recipe, you have to multiply everything by 2.5.
1o people:
1 1/4 lb ground beef
2 1/2 medium onion diced
2 1/2 celery finely sliced
2 1/2 clove of garlic
35 oz can of tomatoes chopped
1 1/4 can of tomato paste
2 1/2 tsp parsley
3 3/4 tsp basil
2 1/2 tsp oregano
2 1/2 tsp sugar
1 1/4 tsp Worchestershire Sauce
1 1/4 tsp seasoning salt
2 1/2 bay leaf


To serve 1 person with this recipe, you have to divide the real recipe by 4.
1 person:

1/8 lb ground beef

1/4 medium onion diced
1/4 celery finely sliced
1/4 clove of garlic
3.5 oz can of tomatoes chopped
1/8 can of tomato paste
1/4 tsp of parsley0
.375/7.5ml tsp of basil
1/4 tsp of oregano
