Fractions aren't used as much in business as they once were, but one area of your life where you use a lot of fractions is in cooking. I love to cook, but most of the time I'm cooking for two people. Recipes always serve 4, 6, 8, or 10. Fractions to the rescue!

I'm constantly dividing fractions to revise recipes to serve 2, or maybe multiplying them to serve 20 at a party.

For this week, share a recipe that serves two people with your classmates or share your experience using fractions. Here are the rules for sharing a recipe:

1. Your original recipe must serve 4 or more people.

2. Your recipe must have at least 5 ingredients.

3. Indicate how many people the original recipe served.

4. Include the measurements of ingredients for both the original recipe, and, then, include ingredients for 2 servings only in parentheses.

5. If you don't cook and don't have a recipe, there are lots of great cooking websites (you can find some of them on the Course Web Sites page) that can help you out.
