First, we need to determine the amount of flour and sugar combined in the original recipe if it makes 4 loaves of bread.
If the changed recipe calls for 2 1/2 cups of flour and sugar combined, and the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, then the amount of flour and sugar combined in the original recipe is 2 1/2 - 2 = 1/2 of a cup.
Since the recipe makes 4 loaves of bread and we want to make only one loaf, we need to divide the amount of flour and sugar combined by 4 to find the amount needed for one loaf.
1/2 / 4 = 1/8 of a cup.
Therefore, the amount of flour in each cup is 1/8 of a cup.
Kendra is making bread. But the recipe she’s using make 4 loafs of bread, she only want to make one. The changed recipe calls for 2 1/2 of flour and sugar combined. If the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar find the amount of flour in each cup.
