Question

A recipe that makes eight jumbo blueberry muffins calls for one and a half teaspoons of baking powder how much baking powder is needed to make three dozen jumbo muffins

Answer 1

A dozen is 12 jumbo muffins, so 3 dozen is 36 muffins.

We know how much sugar is needed for 8 muffins, and 36 divided by 8 is equal to 4. So we need four times the previous amount.

1.5 tsp x 4 = 6 teaspoons.
