Here are the ingredients to make 12 shortcakes:
50g of sugar
200g of butter
200g of flour
10 ml of milk
liz makes some shortcakes. she uses 25 ml of milk. how many shortcakes did liz make?

robert has
500g of sugar
1000 of butter
1000g of flour
500 ml of milk
work out the greatest number of shortcakes robert can make.

25/10=2.5 lots
2.5x12=30 shortcakes

500/50=10 lots
1000/200=5 lots
1000/200=5 lots
500/10=50 lots
so the maximum number of lots is 5
5x12=60 shortcakes

hope this helps

So,

For a dozen shortcakes:
50g sugar
200g butter
200g flour
10 ml milk

Question #1:
If Liz used 25 ml milk, then she probably made 2.5 dozen shortcakes.

2.5(12) = 30

Liz made 30 shortcakes.

Question #2:
Robert's supplies:
500g sugar
1000g butter
1000g flour
500 ml milk

A dozen shortcakes takes
50g sugar
200g butter
200g flour
10ml milk

If he makes 5 dozen shortcakes, he will use

250g sugar
1000g butter (all of it)
1000g flour (all of it)
50ml milk

Robert cannot make more than 5 dozen shortcakes (60).
