1 answer

Given the equation 2s = 3 1/2,

The first blank about the amount of sugar than flour can be filled in with "3 1/2" since it is the value on the other side of the equation and represents the amount of sugar.

The second blank about the cups of flour can be filled in with "1" since it is the value that is multiplied by 2 to get 3 1/2 and therefore represents the amount of flour.
