Question

Amir is making pizza dough using a base recipe. For each cup of water, Amir needs to use 2 2/3

cups of flour. For each cup of flour he uses, Amir needs to use 1 1/2

tablespoons of olive oil. If he uses 4 cups of water, how many tablespoons of olive oil will he need?

Answer 1

4 cups of water would need 16 tablespoons of olive oil.

Each cup of water uses 2 2/3  cups of flour, while each cup of flour he uses, Amir needs to use 1 1/2  tablespoons of olive oil. Hence for 4 cups of water:

4 cups of water = 2 2/3  cups of flour × 4 cups = 32/3 cups of flour

32/3 cups of flour = 1 1/2  tablespoons of olive oil * 32/3 = 16 tablespoons of olive oil

4 cups of water would need 16 tablespoons of olive oil.
