A recipe calls for 2 1/3 cups of flour, cups of white sugar, and cups of brown sugar. The recipe makes 6 servings.

How many cups of flour are there per serving?
Suppose you modify the recipe to triple the number of servings. How much flour do you need for the modified recipe? [PS]Can you show my how its done too?

Answer:

Lets find how much flour we need for just one serving.

2 2/3 ÷ 6

8/3 ÷ 6

8/3 * 1/6

8/18

4/9 cup of flour per serving

If we triple the recipe (6 * 3 = 18), we will have a total of 18 servings. Multiply the amount of flour we got for one serving to 18 servings.

4/9 * 18/1

72/9

8 cups of flour for 18 servings

Best of Luck!
