If it takes 15.25(432g) of flour to make 24 cupcakes how much flour will it take to make 6 cupcakes?

6 cupcakes is 1/4 of 24 ( 24 / 6 = 4).

This means you would need 1/4 the amount of flour.

Divide the amount needed for 24 cups by 4:

15.25 / 4 = 3.8125

Round answer as needed.

3.8125 (108g) of flour are required

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratio's to solve this problem

432 g                 x  g

    =  

24 cupcakes    6 cupcakes

Using cross products

432*6 = 24x

Divide each side by 24

432*6/24 = 24x/24

108 =x

108 grams

If we needed to use 15.25  units? instead

15.25                 x  

    =  

24 cupcakes    6 cupcakes

15.25 * 6 = 24x

Dividing by 24 on each side

15.25 *6/24 = 24x/24

3.8125 =x

probably .5

i can on others if necessary.
