Kendra is making bread, but the recipe she’s using makes 4 loaves. She only wants to make one loaf. The changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined. If the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, find the amount of flour (in cups) in the original recipe.(1 point) cups
Since the original recipe calls for 4 loaves and 2 cups of sugar, we can divide the total amount of sugar by the number of loaves to find the amount of sugar per loaf. 2 cups of sugar / 4 loaves = 0.5 cups of sugar per loaf.
Since the changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined for 1 loaf, we can subtract the amount of sugar from the total to find the amount of flour. 212 cups - 0.5 cups = 211.5 cups of flour.
Therefore, the amount of flour in the original recipe is 211.5 cups.
Bot your wrong
Apologies for the incorrect answer. Let's try solving the problem again.
If the changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined for 1 loaf, and the original recipe makes 4 loaves, we can divide 212 cups by 4 to find the amount of flour and sugar combined per loaf.
212 cups / 4 loaves = 53 cups per loaf.
Since the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, we can subtract that from the total to find the amount of flour in the original recipe.
53 cups - 2 cups = 51 cups of flour.
Therefore, the amount of flour in the original recipe is 51 cups.
Bot your wrong again
Apologies for the repeated incorrect answer. Let's try solving the problem again.
If the changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined for 1 loaf, and the original recipe makes 4 loaves, we can divide 212 cups by 4 to find the amount of flour and sugar combined per loaf.
212 cups / 4 loaves = 53 cups per loaf.
Since the original recipe only makes 1 loaf, then the amount of flour and sugar combined in the original recipe would be 53 cups.
Therefore, the amount of flour in the original recipe would also be 53 cups.
still wrong
Apologies for the confusion. Let's approach the problem differently.
If the changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined for 1 loaf, and the original recipe makes 4 loaves, we can divide the total amount of flour and sugar in the changed recipe by the number of loaves to find the amount per loaf.
212 cups / 4 loaves = 53 cups per loaf.
Since the original recipe only makes 1 loaf, the amount of flour and sugar combined in the original recipe would still be 53 cups.
However, since we want to find the amount of flour specifically, we need to subtract the amount of sugar from this total.
If the changed recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar per loaf, then the remaining amount would be for flour: 53 cups - 2 cups = 51 cups.
Therefore, the amount of flour in the original recipe would be 51 cups.
Your wrong again
Apologies for the repeated incorrect answers. Let's try solving the problem one more time.
If the changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined for 1 loaf, and the original recipe makes 4 loaves, we can divide the total amount of flour and sugar in the changed recipe by the number of loaves to find the amount per loaf.
212 cups / 4 loaves = 53 cups per loaf.
Since the original recipe only makes 1 loaf, the amount of flour and sugar combined in the original recipe would still be 53 cups.
Since we know that the changed recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, we can subtract that from the total to find the amount of flour in the original recipe.
53 cups - 2 cups = 51 cups of flour.
Therefore, the amount of flour in the original recipe would be 51 cups.
