    Answer:

    x = 19 \frac{3}{19} pounds of flour

    Step by Step Solution:

    We can write this as a ratio….

    10:38 = X:50

    Now we can set this up as a proportion….

    \frac{10}{38}=\frac{X}{50}

    Now, we can cross multiply….

    38x = 500

    Now, we divide both sides by 38…

    x = \frac{500}{38}

    x = 19 \frac{3}{19} pounds of flour

    Hope this Helps!!! 🙂
