Question

A recipe for a loaf of bread calls for 2/3 of a cup of flour. If Milo used 12 cups of flour, how many loafs of bread did he prepare?

Answer 1

The answer is:

1/2 cups of flour can make 1 loaf.

1 cup would make =   1 /(1/2) = 2 loaves.

12 cups of flour would then make =  12*2 = 24

= 24 loaves.

Answer 2

ratio and proportion

1 loaf is to 2/3 cup

? loaves is to 12 cups

1:2/3=?:12

so

$\frac{1}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{?}{12}$

cross multiply or basically multipily both sides by $(\frac{2}{3})(12)$

$12=\frac{2}{3}?$

multiply both sides by $\frac{3}{2}$

$\frac{36}{2}=?$

$18=?$

18 loaves of bread was prepared
