Answer:[tex]\frac{4}{15}[/tex] cup
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
A bread recipe requires [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] cup of flour
and [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] cup of sugar
i.e. ratio of flour and sugar is [tex]\dfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{5}}[/tex]
which will remain same for each time we make bread
When 1 cup of flour is used then amount of sugar is
Suppose x cup of sugar is required so equating the ratio of flour to sugar
[tex]\dfrac{\frac{3}{4}}{\frac{1}{5}}=\dfrac{1}{x}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{1}{5}\times \frac{4}{3}[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{4}{15}[/tex]
