Answer:

Mr. Conrad will need 14  cups of cherries to make 8 pies

Explanation:

Given;

A pie recipe =  1 3/4 cups of cherries = ⁷/₄ cups of cherries

8 pies will require how many cups of cherries ?

This is a proportion problem;

1 pie of recipe = ⁷/₄ cups of cherries

8 pies = x

x = 8 x  ⁷/₄ cups of cherries

x = 2 x 7  cups of cherries

x = 14  cups of cherries

Therefore, Mr. Conrad will need 14  cups of cherries to make 8 pies
