Question

Uncle Buck used 5 cups of flour to make 8 dozen muffins. How many cups of flour would he need to make 20 dozen muffins?​

Answer 1

Answer:

12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Divide 20 dozen by 8 dozen to find the scale factor:

He needs 2.5 times more flour.

Multiply 5 cups by 2.5:

5 x 2.5 = 12.5 cups of flour are needed.
