    We can use ratios to find the answer to this.

    Set up the ratio.

    3/4 / 18/7 = x / 1

    Multiply both sides by 1

    3/4 / 18/7 = x

    Inverse 18/7 to 7/18 so we can multiply.

    3/4 * 7/18 = x

    Multiply.

    21/72 = x

    Simplify7/24 = x

    Therefore, 7/24 cups of oats is used per pound.
