For the answer to the question above,
when you put it into a proportion it would be 2/24 = x/54
multiply 2 and 54 which equals 108
and multiply 24 and x which equals 24x
so you have 24x=108 divide 24x by 24 so you have x standing alone but what you do to one side you have to do to the other so divide 108 by 24 and get 4.5 which is 4 1/2 cups of flour.
So the answer is 2/24 = x/54; x = 4 1/2 cups
