Step-by-step explanation:

2 person's tea requires =

300 ml water

2 spoons of sugar

1 spoon of tea leaves

50 ml of milk

.°. 1 person's tea requires

300/2 = 150 ml water

2/2 = 1 spoon of sugar

1/2 = 1/2 spoon of tea leaves

50/2 = 25 ml of milk

.°. 5 person's tea requires

150×5 = 750 ml water

1×5 = 5 spoons of sugar
