Set up a proportion. 4 3/4 cup broth is to 10 servings as x cups broth is to 1 serving soup.
x= amount of broth in one serving
(4 3/4)/10= x/1
cross multiply
(4 3/4)(1)= 10x
convert 4 3/4 to improper fraction
(19/4)(1)= 10x
19/4= 10x
divide both sides by 10
19/4 ÷ 10= x
to divide fractions, multiply by reciprocal of 10
19/4 * 1/10= x
multiply numerators; multiply denominators
(19*1)/(4*10)= x
19/40 cup= x
ANSWER: 19/40 cup in one serving
Hope this helps! :)

What is fraction ?
Fraction is way of writing a part of a whole number
Here given that a chef uses [tex]4 \frac{3}{4}[/tex]cups of broth for 10 servings of soup.
We can write [tex]4 \frac{3}{4}[/tex] as
[tex]\frac{4\times4+3}{4}\\ \\\frac{19}{4}[/tex]
Let broth is used in one serving of soup= x
Now broth used in one serving of soup can be calculated as
[tex]\frac{19}{4} = 10x\\\\x= \frac{19}{40}[/tex]
