Question

A chef uses 2 3 cup of flour for every 1 8 cup of water in a dough recipe. If the chef follows the recipe proportions, which statement is true?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

A chef uses 2/3 cup of flour for every 1/8 cup of water in a dough recipe.

It means,

2/3 cup = 1/8 cup of water

$1\ \text{cup}=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{8}}{\dfrac{2}{3}}\\\\=0.1875$

Hence, the constant of proportionality is 0.1875.
