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 2 1/2 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) please
To find the amount of flour in the original recipe, we need to subtract the amount of sugar from the total amount of flour and sugar.
If the changed recipe calls for 2 1/2 cups of flour and sugar combined, and the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, then the amount of flour is 2 1/2 cups - 2 cups = 1/2 cup.
Therefore, the original recipe calls for 1/2 cup of flour.
