Answer:

\frac{3}{2}  cups of butter should be use to keep the same ratio.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A recipe for pie dough calls for a ratio of butter to flour of 1/4 :5/6.

If you plan to use 5 cups of flour.

Now, to find the butter should be used to keep the same ratio.

So, to get the quantity of butter by using unitary method:

If, \frac{5}{6}  cup of flour use then butter should be = \frac{1}{4} .

So, 1 cup of flour use then butter should be = \frac{1}{4} \div \frac{5}{6} =  \frac{6}{20} .

Thus, for 5 cups of flour butter should be = \frac{6}{20} \times 5 = \frac{30}{20}=\frac{3}{2} .

Therefore, \frac{3}{2} cups of butter should be use to keep the same ratio.
