Question

This recipe makes 3 portions of porridge. Complete the amount of each ingredient that is needed to make just 2 portions. Recipe: Serves 3 240 g oats 1.2 l milk 60 g sugar

Answer 1

160 g of oats

0.4 l or 400 ml of milk

20 g sugar

Explanation:

If the recipe originally serves 3 portions and we require the amount of each ingredient that is needed to make 2 portions, simply multiply each amount in the original recipe by 2/3.

Oats:

`O = (2)/(3)*240\ g\\ O=160\ g`

Milk:

`M = (2)/(3)*1.2\ l\\M=0.4\ l=400\ ml`

Sugar:

`S = (2)/(3)*60\ g\\S=40\ g`

160 g of oats

0.4 l or 400 ml of milk

20 g sugar
