Answer:
(a)Susan's measurements are incorrect. correct measurement is 2 cups of each sugar and flour.
(b)The triple measure is 3 cups of sugar and 3 cups of flour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The original measurements of the ingredients are:
Cups of sugar needed = 1 cup
and Cups of flour needed = 1 cup
Now, the double of the original measurements are:
Double of sugar = 2 x ( Previous measurement ) = 2 x ( 1 cup) = 2 cups
Double of flour = 2 x ( Previous measurement ) = 2 x ( 1 cup) = 2 cups
(a) Susan doubled the recipe with 2.1 cups of sugar and 33 cups of flour.
As the double measurements of sugar and flour are 2 cups each.
hence, Susan's measurements are incorrect.
b) The triple measurements of the ingredients are:
Triple of sugar = 3 x ( Previous measurement ) = 3 x ( 1 cup) = 3 cups
Triple of flour = 3 x ( Previous measurement ) = 3 x ( 1 cup) = 3 cups
hence the triple measure is 3 cups of each sugar and flour.
