convert these ingredients from a recipe that serves 8 to one that serves 12 a 5 c flour b 3 1/2 c sugar c 4 tsp vanilla d 6 eggs

zarkam21:

I am zarkam21 sister

Vocaloid:

the current recipe serves 8 people, so you could divide each of the ingredients by 8 to get the amount needed per person then, for 12 people, you would just multiply each ingredient by 12 so basically, for each choice, divide by 8, multiply by 12

zarkam21:

8/5 = 1.6 1.6 x 12= 19.2 so 19.2

Vocaloid:

divide ~by~ 8 so 5 c flour ----> 5/8 not 8/5, then you'd multiply that by 12

zarkam21:

so 7.5

Vocaloid:

good, a = 7.5 cups of flour

zarkam21:

thank you so much for your help

Vocaloid:

are you good on the others? b-d?

zarkam21:

yes
