Arecipe for sugar cookies requires 2 cups of flour for every 2/3 cups of sugar. at this rate how many cups of sugar should be used if 5 cups of flour is needed

1⅔ cup  

Step-by-step explanation:

You need ⅔ cup of sugar for every 2 cups of flour.

For 5 cups of flour,

Volume of sugar = 5 cups flour × (⅔ cup sugar/2 cup flour)

                           = 5 × ⅔ × ½   Divide numerator and denominator by 2

                           = 5 × ⅓

                           = ⁵/₃               Convert to mixed number

                           = 1⅔ cup

Five cups of flour take 1⅔ cup of sugar.
