18 muffins. How many cups of flour and sugar will you need for your recipe?
The above problem can easily be solved using a proportion. Show your work

4 cups of flour is needed and 4/3 cups of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

2 dozen Muffins; 3 cups of flour and 1 cup of sugar

Required

Determine the cups of flour if 18 muffins is used

First, we have to determine the proportion of the number of muffins used previously and now;

Represent this with p;

Multiply this to the previous cups of flours and sugars;

Cups of flour = p * previous cups of flour

Cups of Sugar = p * previous cups of sugar

Hence, 4 cups of flour is needed and 4/3 cups of sugar
