Answer 1

The original recipe makes 4 loaves of bread, and the changed recipe makes 1 loaf of bread.

If the changed recipe calls for 24 cups of flour and sugar combined, then the original recipe would have 24 cups x 4 loaves = <<24*4=96>>96 cups of flour and sugar combined.

If the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, then the remaining 96 cups - 2 cups = <<96-2=94>>94 cups of flour in the original recipe. Answer: \boxed{94}.
