How many cups will you need to find the number of servings for?

Answer 1

The 2 gallons of milk can be used to make 96 servings.

To find the number of servings for a given amount of milk, we need to convert the amount of milk to cups. Given that 1 gallon is equal to 16 cups, we can use this conversion to find the number of servings.

a) The recipe uses 2 cups of milk to make 6 servings. This means that 1 serving requires 2/6 = 1/3 cup of milk.

b) To find the number of servings from 2 gallons of milk, we can use the following calculation:

Number of servings = (2 gallons) * (16 cups/gallon) * (1 serving/1/3 cup)

= 2 * 16 * 3

= 96 servings

Therefore, 2 gallons of milk can be used to make 96 servings.
