A bakery uses 8 tablespoons of honey for every 10 cups of flour to make bread
dough. Some days they bake bigger batches and some days they bake smaller
batches, but they always use the same ratio of honey to flour.

Blank 1: How much flour is needed for 16 tablespoons of honey? Whole Number

Blank 2: How much flour is needed for 15 tablespoons of honey? Decimal or Fraction

Answer :

Answer:

Blank 1: 20 cups of flour

Blank 2: 18.75 cups of flour or 18 3/4 cups of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Blank 1:  It tells you for every 8 tablespoons of honey they need 10 cups of flour. 16 table spoons of honey is double the 8 tablespoons of honey so you would also double the amount of flour.

2 x 10= 20.

Blank 2: You can find out how much cups of flour is needed for one table spoon of honey by dividing the cups of flour by 8 which gives you 1 and 1/4 or 1.25. Then you can multiply that by 15 for the 15 tablespoons of honey.

1.25 x 15 = 18.75

1 1/4 x 15 = 75/4 or 18 3/4.
