Anna's making muffins! These ingredients make 12 muffins: 3/4 cup of flour 1/2 cup of sugar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup of milk 1/3 teaspoon cinnamon 7 tablespoons butter 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 egg 2 tablespoons brown sugar Anna has a 8 muffin tray. What fractions of ingredients should she use?

Correct answer:

f =  0.5 c
s =  0.3333 c
s₂ =  0.1667 tsp
m =  0.6667 c
c =  0.2222 tsp
b =  4.6667 tsp
p =  1.3333 tsp
e =  0.6667
s₃ =  1.3333 tsp

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} m_1=12 \\ {m}_2=8 \\ k={\displaystyle \frac{m_2}{m_1}}={\displaystyle \frac{8}{12}}={\displaystyle \frac{2}{3}}\doteq 0.6667 \\ f={\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}}\cdot k={\displaystyle \frac{3}{4}}\cdot 0.6667={\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}}\text{ c}=0.5\text{ c} \end{gathered}$$

$e=1\cdot k=1\cdot 0.6667={\displaystyle \frac{2}{3}}=0.6667$
