Answer:
Each cupcake occupies 1/8 of the cup of milk.
Step-by-step explanation:
If the entire batch of cupcakes is mixed when prepared, occupies 1 full cup of milk and for each batch 8 large cupcakes come out, then it follows that each large prepared cupcake must have 1/8 cup of milk.
1 cup milk / 8 large cupcakes = 1/8 milk for each large cupcake.
The complete question is:
Each batch of cupcake mix requires 1/3 of a cup of milk. According to the recipe, the batch can make 12 small cupcakes or 8 large cupcakes. If Emma makes a batch of large cupcakes, how much milk is used for each cupcake?

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that each batch of cupcake mix requires 1/3 of a cup of milk, and the batch can make 12 small cupcakes or 8 large cupcakes. To know how much milk is used by Emma in making each cupcake in a batch of large cupcakes, we need to divide 1/3 by 8
1/3 ÷ 8
= 1/3 × 1/8
= 1/24
