Answer:

4 muffins per cup of flour

Explanation:

To solve this, simplify the ratio as much as possible

8 muffins : 2 cups of flour

You are solving for: x muffins : 1 cup of flour

Simplify. Divide common factors from both the numerator and denominator. In this case, divide 2.

8/2 = 4

2/2 = 1

4 muffins : 1 cups of flour is your simplified version.

4 muffins per cup of flour is your answer
