A recipe calls for 3 cups of flour, 2 cups of sugar and 1 cup of milk. Mason is going to use 7 cups of sugars instead. how much flour and milk should he use so that the recipe stays the same

Answer 1

Answer:

We need to make a conversion for the new recipe. If the regular recipe calls for 2 cups of Sugar, we can make a conversion for the new recipe.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion- 2:7= 1:4  (sugar)

2:7 (sugar)

3: x (flour)
