Seafood gumbo, a traditional Marie Gras dish uses 13 cups of chicken broth for each 1 1/4 cups of flour. Mr. Young used 12 1/4 cups of flour for his gumbo. How many cups of chicken broth did he use?
1 cup of chicken ------> 1 1/4 flour
x cups of chicken ------> 12 1/4 flour
x(1 1/4)=(12 1/4) * 1
x(5/4) = (49/4)
x = 49/4 * 4/5
x = 49/5
x = 9 4/5
Answer: 9 4/5 cups of chicken broth
