Eric is baking a cake. the recipe calls for 2 1/2 pounds of flour for every 1/4 cup of sugar. how many pounds of flour should eric use for 1 cup of sugar?

Eric would use 10 cups of flour for 1 cup of sugar

Step-by-step explanation:

The recipe calls for 2 1/2 pounds of flour for every 1/4 cup of sugar. Converting 2 1/2 pounds to decimal, it becomes 2.5 pounds of flour. Converting 1/4 pounds to decimal, it becomes 0.25

We want to determine the number of pounds of flour that Eric should use for 1 cup of sugar,

Let x represent the number of pounds of flour that Eric should use for 1 cup of sugar,

If 2.5 pounds of flour = 0.25 pounds of sugar,

x pounds of flour = 1 pounds of sugar,

x = 2.5/0.25 = 10

.
