Question

Eli is following this recipe to bake bread rolls.

He uses 700 g of flour.
How much of the other ingredients does he use?
Recipe: Makes 10 bread rolls
500 g flour
7 g salt
14 g yeast
35 mL oil
350 mL water

Answer 1

Well 500 is 71% of 700 or 0.71.

7 divided by 0.71 = 9.8/9.9/9 g salt

14 divided by 0.71 = 19.7/19 g yeast

35 divided by 0.71 = 49.2/49 mL oil

350 divided by 0.71 = 492.9/492/493 mL water.

Depends if you round off or not.
