Bob was making a batch of 24 muffins for his mom’s birthday. Bob estimated that he would need 4.5 cups of flour. Two weeks before her birthday he made a test batch of 10 muffins that took 2.25 cups of flour. How should he estimate the amount of flour he is going to need?
A. He should try 4.5 cups because he’s doubling the recipe.
B. He should try 5 cups because that’s just more than twice the test batch.
C. He should try 10.8 cups because 4.5 × 24 ÷ 10 = 10.8
D. He should try 5.2 cups because 2.25 × 24 ÷ 10 = 5.4
