Here are the ingrediants needed to make 8 pancakes. 250ml milk, 1 egg, 140g flour, 5g butter Craig makes 12 pancakes work out how much butter he needs

Answer 1

8 times 1.5 is 12. So now you gotta do that with all the ingredients. In that case it's asking you the amount of butter so it's 5 times 1.5 which gives 7.5. So Craig needs 7.5g of butter.
