Question: A recipe calls for 2⁄3 cup of sugar. If you want to make 3⁄2 times the recipe, how much sugar will you need?
(1) 1/2 cup
(2) 1 cup
(3) 3/4 cup
(4) 2 cups
Solution:
To find the required amount of sugar, multiply the original amount of sugar by : 3⁄2
2⁄3 × 3⁄2 = 2×3/3×2 = 6⁄6 = 1
So, you will need 1 cup of sugar.
