Arecipe calls for the following ingredients. 3 c flour, 1/2 t salt, 3/4 c sugar, 4 c fruit, 2 t butter. to make 2/3 of the recipe how much of each ingredient should you use?

Divide by 3 to each ingredient (gives you a third)  and then multiply your answer by two (gives you 2/3). For example, 2 divided by 3 is 2/3, multiply by two and get 1 1/3 t of butter. For the fruits, 4 divided by 3 is 4/3, simplified is 1 1/3, multiply by 2 and get 2 2/3.

The given amount of ingredients are needed to make 'one recipe', Therefore to make 2/3 of the recipe, the required quantity of each ingredient will be multiplied by 2/3 to get:

Flour --> 3 x 2/3 = 2 cups

Salt --> 1/2 x 2/3 = 1/3 teaspoons

Sugar --> 3/4 x 2/3 = 1/2 cups

Fruit --> 4 x 2/3 = 8/3 cups

Butter --> 2 x 2/3 = 4/3 cups
