Answer: 48

Explanation:

For every 24 cups of sugar, there will be 2 cups of flour.

First, we must notice how 4 is twice the amount of 2. Because of this, we can conclude that there will be double the amount of sugar.

24 + 24 = 48.

Explanation:

Since we are doubling the amount of flower we are going to double the whole recipe.

So...

24 x 2 = 48
