Given the information on the table, we can write the following proportions:


(8)/(10)=(20)/(x)

where 'x' represents the number of cups of flour needed for 20 teaspoons of honey. Solving for 'x', we get:


\begin{gathered} (8)/(10)=(20)/(x) \\ \Rightarrow8x=20\cdot10=200 \\ \Rightarrow x=(200)/(8)=25 \\ x=25 \end{gathered}

therefore, we need 25 cups of flour to use with 20 teaspoons of honey
