Since the changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined, and Kendra only wants to make one loaf, she needs to divide 212 by 4 to find out how much flour and sugar are in one loaf.
212/4 = <<212/4=53>>53 cups.
Since the original recipe used 2 cups of sugar, the remaining cups must be from flour.
53 - 2 = <<53-2=51>>51 cups of flour.
Therefore, the original recipe calls for 51 cups of flour. Answer: \boxed{51}.
Kendra is making bread, but the recipe she’s using makes 4 loaves. She only wants to make one loaf. The changed recipe calls for 212 cups of flour and sugar combined. If the original recipe calls for 2 cups of sugar, find the amount of flour (in cups) in the original recipe.(1 point)
