Respuesta :

Answer: 12 Basil leaves

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Monica uses 3 basil leaves for every 8 tomatoes

For 32 tomatoes she needs

[tex]\Rightarrow 3\ \text{basil leaves}\equiv8\ \text{Tomatoes}\\\\\Rightarrow 4\times 3\ \text{basil leaves}\equiv4\times 8\ \text{Tomatoes}\\\\\Rightarrow 12\ \text{basil leaves}\equiv 32\ \text{Tomatoes}[/tex]

Thus, she needs 12 basil leaves.
