Question

How many cups do they use with 20 tablespoons of honey

Answer 1

1.25 cups

Explanation:

1 cup is the equivalent of 16 tablespoons, so you can set up a proportion to find the number of cups 20 tablespoons of honey is.

`(1 cup)/(16 tablespoons) = (x cups)/(20 tablespoons)`

Then you cross multiply, to get 20 tablespoons*cups = 16x tablespoons*cups. If you divide both sides by 16 tablespoons, then you get x cups = 1.25 cups which is your final answer, 20 tablespoons of honey is 1.25 cups of honey.
