Question

A recipe uses 3 cups of milk to make 9 servings how many servings can be made from two quarts

Answer 1

3 cups of milk

9 servings

The proportion is:

Servings/cups of milk = 9 /3

For 2/4 of cups of milk: = x / (2/4)

Equal both proportions:

9/3 = x / (2/4)

Solve for x:

3 = x / (2/4)

3 (2/4) = x

3/2 = x

1.5 servings
