STEP 1

Assumptions1. The recipe for150 servings requires4.5 liters of cheese sauce. . We want to find out how much cheese sauce is required for80 servings.

STEP 2

First, we need to find out how much cheese sauce is required per serving. We can do this by dividing the total amount of cheese sauce by the total number of servings.
Cheesesauceperserving=Totalcheesesauce/TotalservingsCheese\, sauce\, per\, serving = Total\, cheese\, sauce / Total\, servings

STEP 3

Now, plug in the given values for the total cheese sauce and total servings to calculate the cheese sauce per serving.
Cheesesauceperserving=.5liters/150servingsCheese\, sauce\, per\, serving =.5\, liters /150\, servings

STEP 4

Calculate the cheese sauce required per serving.
Cheesesauceperserving=4.liters/150servings=0.03litersperservingCheese\, sauce\, per\, serving =4.\, liters /150\, servings =0.03\, liters\, per\, serving

STEP 5

Cheesesaucefor80servings=CheesesauceperservingtimesNumberofservingsCheese\, sauce\, for\,80\, servings = Cheese\, sauce\, per\, serving \\times Number\, of\, servings

STEP 6

Cheesesaucefor80servings=0.03litersperservingtimes80servingsCheese\, sauce\, for\,80\, servings =0.03\, liters\, per\, serving \\times80\, servings

STEP 7

Calculate the cheese sauce required for80 servings.
Cheesesaucefor80servings=0.03litersperservingtimes80servings=2.4litersCheese\, sauce\, for\,80\, servings =0.03\, liters\, per\, serving \\times80\, servings =2.4\, litersSo,2.4 liters of cheese sauce are required for80 servings.
