Kelly is trying to entertain her children during the summer holidays by doing some baking.

The ingredients needed to make 6 brownies are as follows:

Cocoa powder 115g

Butter 45g

Sugar 80g

Baking powder ½ of a tablespoon

Work out how much butter is needed to make 15 brownies.

Answer:

Amount of butter per brownie = 45/6 = 7.5g

So to make 15 brownies = 7.5 x 15 = 112.5g
