Question

A recipe requires ¼ cup of oil for every ⅔ cup of water. How much oil (in cups) is needed per cup of water?

Answer 1

Answer:

3/8 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide both sides by 2 to get the value for 1/3 cup of water:

1/3 cup water = 1/8 cup of oil

Now, multiply each side of the equation by 3 to get 1 cup of water:

1 cup water = 3/8 cup of oil

hope this helps!
