Answer:
[tex]4[/tex] ounces of nuts are there per cake.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given Isaac used [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of an ounce of nuts to make [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] of a pound cake.
We need to find ounces of nuts per cake.
We can see that [tex]\frac{1}{16}[/tex] pound of the cake made by [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] ounce of nuts.
We will multiply both side by [tex]16[/tex].
So, [tex]\frac{16\times 1}{16}=1[/tex] pound of cake will be made by [tex]\frac{1}{4}\times 16=4[/tex] ounces of nuts.
So, there are [tex]4[/tex] ounces of nuts there per cake.
