Answer 1

Answer: 2-cup bowl

Explanation:

Given: Sam has 2-cup bowl, a 4-cup bowl, and a 6-cup bowl.

here, Quantity in 2-cup < Quantity in 4-cup < Quantity in 6-cup .

So, 2-cup bowl is the smallest bowl with the least capacity.

So, if Sam is interested to make the punch in the smallest bowl, then she will absolutely take 2-cup bowl.

Hence, the smallest bowl Sam can use to make the punch =2-cup bowl
