She needs 34 cup of flour for that recipe, but she wants to
serve 6 people. How much flour will she need?

Answer 1

51

Explanation:

34/4=X/6

X=(34*6)/4

X=51

Answer 2

Explanation:

amount of flour needed for 4 people = 34 cup

amount of flour needed for 1 person = 34/4

amount of flour needed for 6 people = (34/4) * 6

= 34*6 /4 = 34*3/2 = 17 * 3 = 51cup
