A recipe calls for 1 3/4 cups of milk for 8 servings. If the recipe is increased to 24 servings, how much cups of milk are needed?

Sagot :

Assuming there is the same amount of cups of milk per serving.

Answer:

[tex]5~1/4[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

When we increase from [tex]8[/tex] servings to [tex]24[/tex] servings, we triple the amount of servings needed, and hence we triple the amount of ingredients needed.

So, the amount of cups of milk needed is [tex]3(1+3/4)=3+9/4=3+2~1/4=5~1/4[/tex].

So, the answer is [tex]\boxed{5~1/4}[/tex] and we're done!

Answer:

5 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1 ¾ times 3= 5¼

7/4 • 3/1 = 21/4

21/4 = 5 1/4

Im not sure if this is correct lol
