Practical Applications

Math in Cooking

Measuring Ingredients

Cooking uses math every day! Recipes use fractions (like 1/2 cup of sugar) and measurements. Sometimes, you’ll need to double or halve a recipe, which means multiplying or dividing ingredients.

Why It Matters

Accurate math keeps your food tasty and recipes correct.

Kitchen Activity

Try doubling a recipe with your family and see how the amounts change!

Examples

  • A recipe needs 1/2 cup of oil. If you double the recipe, use 1 cup.

  • If you have only 1/4 cup of milk but need 1/2 cup, you know you need more.
