Respuesta :

Answer:

Flour need for 1 cup of water = [tex]1\frac{7}{8}[/tex] cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cups of water = [tex]1\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = 4/3

Cups of flour = [tex]2\frac{1}{2}[/tex] = 5/2

Find:

Flour need for 1 cup of water

Computation:

Flour need for 1 cup of water = Cups of flour / Cups of water

Flour need for 1 cup of water = (5/2) / (4/3)

Flour need for 1 cup of water = 15/8

Flour need for 1 cup of water = [tex]1\frac{7}{8}[/tex]
