Answer 1

Answer:

2x

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Number of cupcakes made in one day be x.

ATQ,

Cup of flour used for making one cupcake = 2

Number of cup of flour required to make cupcake of whole day = 2×(Number of cupcakes made)

⇒ Number of cup of flour required to make cupcake of whole day = 2x

Answer 2

Answer:

Joseph used 2x cups of flour of flour each day in baking cupcakes if 'x' is the number of cupcakes baked each day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Joseph bakes same number of cupcakes each day.

It is also given that he uses 2 cups of flour in each cupcake.

We need to find the number of cups of flour Joseph used each day in baking cupcakes.

Let Joseph bake 'x' cupcakes each day.

Therefore,

The total flour used each day = no. of cupcakes * flour used in 1 cupcake

                                                  = x * 2

                                                  = 2x

Therefore, Joseph used 2x cups of flour of flour each day in baking cupcakes if 'x' is the number of cupcakes baked each day.
