If a recipe which makes 8 servings calls for 2 cups of sugar, how many cups of sugar will it take to make 18 servings?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.5

Step-by-step explanation:

2/8=x/18

Answer:

4.5 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

first you set up the problem like servings/cups. This would look like 8/2. Then you add the 18 servings and make it a cross multiplication problem. The expression would look like 8/2=18/x. You cross multiply and get 8x=36. Divide by 8 and get x=4.5 cups.
