Answer:

Mrs. Conner need to prepare 16 batches of banana pudding at party.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mrs Conner plans to serve banana pudding and she plans to make 2 batches for every 9 people attending.

So it means that p people would get 2 batches of banana pudding.

9 people would get = 2 batches

Number of people who are attending the party is 79

We need to find the number of batches Mrs Conner needs to prepare.

If,

9 people would get = 2 batches

72 people would get = Number of batches need to prepare.

So we will use cross multiplication method to find the same.

Cross multiplying means We need to multiply 2 and 72 and 9 and Number of batches we need to prepare.

Hence we get

Number of batches need to prepare = [tex]\frac{2\times 72}{9} =\frac{144}{9}=16[/tex]

Hence Mrs. Conner need to prepare 16 batches of banana pudding at party.
