A recipe calls for 3 cups of milk for 4 pancakes. To use this recipe to make 16 pancakes, how many cups of milk are needed?

10 is all the way correct try it

16 is correct

10 is correct

To find out how many cups of milk are needed to make 16 pancakes using the given recipe, we can set up a proportion.

Let's set up the proportion:

3 cups of milk / 4 pancakes = x cups of milk / 16 pancakes

To solve for x, we can cross multiply:

(3 cups of milk) * (16 pancakes) = (4 pancakes) * x cups of milk

48 cups of milk = 4 * x cups of milk

Now, divide both sides of the equation by 4 to solve for x:

48 cups of milk / 4 = 4 * x cups of milk / 4

12 cups of milk = x cups of milk

Therefore, to make 16 pancakes using this recipe, you will need 12 cups of milk.
