If 400ml of milk is used for 8 pancakes, how much is used for 6

So we can do this by finding how much is needed for one pancake first.


50ml of milk is needed to make 1 pancake.

From there we can multiply it by 6 to figure out how much we need for 6.


Alternatively, you can just divide 400 by 8/6 but some people find that confusing and it's often easier to follow workings if you do the above method.

300ml of milk is needed to make 6 pankakes.
