\n" ); document.write( "Answer: 3 cups of water\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Explanation\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "To make 2 pizzas, he needs 3 cups of flour.
\n" ); document.write( "To make 8 pizzas, he needs 12 cups of flour.
\n" ); document.write( "This is a jump of \"times 4\".\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Quadrupling the original amount of water has us go from 3/4 cups to (3/4)*4 = 3 cups\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "Another way to find this answer is to solve this proportion
\n" ); document.write( "3/0.75 = 12/x
\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
