Answer:

The expression is C/20 cups of flour in one cake

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- There are 10 students

- Each one made 2 chocolate cakes

- They all used the same recipe

- The total amount of flour is C cups

* Lets change these information to equation

∵ There are 10 students

∵ Each student made 2 cakes

∴ The total number of cakes = 10 × 2 = 20 cakes

∵ The total amount of flour for the twenty cakes is C cups

- To find the amount of flour in each cake divide the total amount

  of flour by the total number of the cakes

∴ The amount of flour in each cake = C/20

* The expression is C/20 cups of flour in one cake
