Question

This problem is ratio problem

Answer 1

Here's your ratio:

2 water:3 flour (you need two cups of water for every three cups of flour)

Since we're turning that 3 flour into 9 flour, the question we ask ourselves is:

3 x [] = 9

3 x 3 = 9

 

Now that we know what we're multiplying, we look at the water part:

2 x 3 = []

2 x 3 = 6

 

Therefore, you need 6 cups of water.
