A recipe requires 3 2/3cups of milk for every 1/8 of a cup of flour. How many cups of
milk are required for each cup of flour?
we know that
3 2/3cups of milk -------> 1/8 of a cup of flour
so
To find out how many cups of milk are required for each cup of flour, multiply the cups of milk by 8
but first convert mixed number to an improper fraction
3 2/3=3+2/3=11/3
Multiply by 8
(11/3)8=88/3 cups of milk
convert to mixed number
88/3=87/3+1/3=29+1/3=29 1/3 cups of milk
