twice as much sugar as butter, and three times
as much flour as sugar. How many cups of

cups of flour​

Respuesta :

Answer:

3 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

the original recipe calls for 6 cups of flour (3 times as much as sugar. sugar is 2 cups, times 3 is 6)

half it: 6/2 = 3

Answer:

3 cups of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

If sugar is twice as much as butter, we need 2 cups of sugar.

If flour is 3 times as much as sugar, we'll need 6 cups.

Half of 6 is 3.
