A recipe for cornbread calls for 2 cups of flour for every 41 cup of water. Using the same recipe, how much water will you need for 9 cups of flour?
How many cups of water will you need for 9 cups of flour? Fill in that information in the table. Solve on paper. Then, enter your answer on Zearn.
To find out how much water you need for 9 cups of flour, you can set up a proportion:
2 cups of flour / 1 cup of water = 9 cups of flour / x cups of water
Cross multiply to solve for x:
2 * x = 9 * 1
2x = 9
x = 9 / 2
x = 4.5
Therefore, you will need 4.5 cups of water for 9 cups of flour.
