A cake recipe calls for 1.5 cups of milk and 3 cups of flour. Seth made a mistake and used 5 cups of flour. How many cups of milk should he use to keep the amount of ingredients proportional?

2.5 cups of milk will make his ingredients proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since he used five out of the three cups of flour he was supposed to use, you can use that as the fraction: 5/3.

Since 5/3 was used on the flour, it also has to be used on the milk

To apply it to the milk, you just multiply 5/3 × 1.5 cups of milk, which gets you 2.5 cups of milk

*Multiplying by a fraction also means of.

Example: 1/2 × 4 = 2 because two is 1/2 of 4

describing distributions is one of the key skills you’ll need to earn a high score on the ap statistics exam. if you need proof of this, just flip through some past exam questions, which can be found at the collegeboard website. you’ll notice that the first free response question is almost always a question requiring you to look at a graph and describe it.
