two and one third cups
three and three quarters cups
four and one quarter cups
two and one quarter cups

Answer 1

Answer: To calculate the amount of pasta needed for eight servings, we need to multiply the original amount of pasta in the recipe by 8/6.

So, 1.75 cups * 8/6 = 2.3 cups of pasta.

Therefore, Rosa will use 2.3 cups or four and one quarter cups of pasta if she wants to make eight servings.
