You can put this solution on YOUR website! if you want cook 5 cups of rice you will need of 10 cups of water because the each cup of rice you use 2 cups of water
look
to 4 cups of rice are 8 cups of water and 8=4*2 or 8=4+4
is the same here 10 and 20 where 20=10*2 or 20=10+10
so we have 5 and 10 because 10=5*2 or 10=5+5
can express like this c+2w where c is the amount of cups of rice and w is the amount of cups of water
