Nolan is following his family's macaroni and cheese recipe. The recipe calls for 6 cups of shredded

cheese and 4 tablespoons of milk. He wants to make a smaller batch, so he uses only 3 cups of
shredded cheese.
How much milk does Nolan need for this smaller batch?
tablespoons

Answer:2 tablespoons of milk

Explanation:

If nolan divides 6 by 2 he gets 3 cups of shredded cheese and to get the same results he would have to divide the milk portion too. 4/2 is 2 so he would need 2 tablespoons of milk.
