Question

How could you use a 1/8-cup measuring cup to measure the cornstarch

Answer 1

you use the 1/8 cup two times

Explanation:

since the recipe calls for 2/8 and you have a 1/8 cup. 1/8 + 1/8 = 2/8

Answer 2

By using the
`(1)/(8) cup twice`

Explanation:

Data:

The recipe suggests
`(2)/(8)` cup.

However, the cup has only
`(1)/(8)` as the highest reading.

Thus the
`(1)/(8)` cup will be used x times to give
`(2)/(8)` starch

Using the equation:

`(1)/(8)x = (2)/(8)`

`x = 2`

So the cup can be used twice
