Malik's recipe for 4 servings of a certain dish requires 1.5 cups of pasta. Accorfing to this recipe, what is the number of cups of pasta that Malik will use the next time he prepares this dish?

(A) The next time he prepares this dish, Malik will make half as many servings as he did the last time he prepared the dish.

(B) Malik used 6 sups of pasta the last time he prepared this dish.

答案是C

請問題目中的4 servings和1.5 cups of pasta 只是個幌子嗎?

4 servings 和 1.5 cups of pasta是一個關係,用這個關係推出 "next time"的 cups of pasta

本題考點是last time 跟next time

A: next time 的servings 是last time的兩倍--不知道serving 數目,無法推得cups of pasta --insufficient

B:last time M 用了 6 cups of pasta-->根據第一行的關係,推出 last time M用了16 servings, 但不知道 next time的訊息 ---insufficient

合併兩個條件

last time: 6 cups of pasta-->16 servings

16 servings---->next time 的servings 是8 ----> next time的cups of pasta 是 3!

故答案C!
