Hemal wanted to make dessert for her family. The recipe made 8 servings, but she only wanted to make enough for 5 people. If the recipe for 8 servings called for 2 cups of flour, how much flour would she need for 5 servings?

The adjustment would be in the likes that 1c=4 servings, so then she would need 1 more serving or 1/4c.
In total: 1 1/4 cups
