Question

A recipe calls for 4 1/2 cups of flour and 1/4 cup of sugar to make one loaf of bread. How much flour and sugar would you need to make 4 loaves of bread?

Answer 1

To determine the amount of flour and sugar needed to make 4 loaves of bread, you can multiply the quantities specified in the recipe by 4.

For 4 loaves of bread: Flour: 4 1/2 cups x 4 = 18 cups of flour

Sugar: 1/4 cup x 4 = 1 cup of sugar

To make 4 loaves of bread, you would need approximately 18 cups of flour and 1 cup of sugar.
