Question

Ms. van Vugt is making brownies. Her recipe calls for 1/2 cup of milk for 12 brownies. She is making 48 brownies. How much milk does she need? (HINT: How many cups are in a pint?) *

Answer 1

Answer: Ms. Van Vugt will need 2 cups of milk or 1 pint of milk to make 48 brownies.

Step-by-step explanation: For this situation, we know for every 12 brownies she will use 1/2 cup of milk. So we can count up for every 12 brownies.

12 brownies = 1/2 cup of milk

24 brownies = 1 cup of milk

36 brownies = 1 1/2 cup of milk

48 brownies = 2 cups of milk

So, Ms. Van Vugt will need 2 cups of milk or 1 pint of milk to make 48 brownies.
