We were told that the recipe uses 6 cups of flour to 1 1/10 cups of milk. Converting 1 1/10 to improper fraction, it becomes 11/10
Let x represent the number of cups of milk that would be used for 2 cups of flour. The equations would be as shown below
11/10 = 6
x = 2
By cross multiplying, we have
2 * 11/10 = 6 * x
6x = 22/10 = 11/5
x = (11/5) / 6
If we flip 6 such that it becomes 1/6, the division sign changes to multiplication. Thus, we have
x = 11/5 * 1/6 = 11/30
Thus, 11/30 cup of milk should be used
