To find out how many Lunar cupcakes you need to buy, you can set up a proportion based on the number of acrobats.
You want to buy 3 cupcakes for every 5 acrobats.
Given there are 10 acrobats, you can calculate it like this:
1. Find the number of cupcake groups:
[
text{Number of groups} = frac{10 text{ acrobats}}{5 text{ acrobats/group}} = 2 text{ groups}
]
2. Calculate the total number of cupcakes:
[
text{Total cupcakes} = 3 text{ cupcakes/group} times 2 text{ groups} = 6 text{ cupcakes}
]
So, you need to buy 6 Lunar cupcakes for the 10 acrobats at the festival.
