You have 8 cups of flour to 24 muffins, which can be shown as 8:24, or 8/24. You need to find x cups of flour to 30 muffins, which can be shown as x:30, or x/30. You will want to cross multiply.
8 x
-- * --
24 30
8 * 30 = 24 * x
240 = 24x
10 = x
You need 10 cups of flour.

For 24 muffins, you needed = 8 cups
So, for 1 muffin, it is = 8/24 = 1/3 cup
Now, for 30 muffins, it would be: 1/3 * 30 = 10
In short, Your Answer would be 10 cups
Hope this helps!
