Question

Eli is following this recipe to bake bread rolls. He uses 600ml of water. How much of the others ingredients does he use? 600g flour 9g salt 12g yeast 30ml oil 500ml water

Answer 1

Answer:

720 grams of flour.

10.8 grams of salt.

14.4 grams of yeast

36 ml of oil.

Step-by-step explanation:

The recipe is:

600g flour

9g salt

12g yeast

30ml oil

500ml water

Now we use 600ml of water.

We can take the quotient between the amount of water we use and the amount of water in the recipe, this is:

600ml/500ml = 1.2

Then the ratio between the quantities we need to use and the quantities un the recipe should be always 1.2

Or the quantities that Eli needs to use will be 1.2 times the ones shown in the recipe.

Then she needs to use:

1.2*600g flour = 720 grams of flour.

1.2*9g salt = 10.8 grams of salt.

1.2*12g yeast = 14.4 grams of yeast

1.2*30ml oil = 36 ml of oil.
