Question

A recipe calls for 15 oz of flour for every 8 fl oz of milk

if you use 15 fl oz of milk, how much flour should you use

Answer 1

Answer: 28.125 ounces of flour

Work Shown:

(15 oz of flour)/(8 fl oz of milk) = (x oz of flour)/(15 fl oz of milk)

15/8 = x/15

15*15 = 8*x

225 = 8x

8x = 225

x = 225/8

x = 28.125
