Solution

a) To find out how much flour Danny needs if he uses 3.85 ml of milk, we first need to establish the ratio of milk to flour in the original recipe. This is 220 ml of milk to 250g of flour, or 0.88 ml of milk per gram of flour.

So, if Danny uses 3.85 ml of milk, he would need:

3.85 ml / 0.88 = 4.38 grams of flour

b) To find out how many eggs Danny needs if he uses 1.25 kg of flour, we first need to establish the ratio of flour to eggs in the original recipe. This is 250g of flour to 4 eggs, or 62.5g of flour per egg.

So, if Danny uses 1.25 kg (or 1250g) of flour, he would need:

1250g / 62.5 = 20 eggs
