5. Example 1 BEANS A recipe calls for 5 cups of water for each cup of pinto beans. Use the ratio table to find how many cups of water should be used for 4 cups of pinto beans. Method 1Find a pattern and extend it. For 2 cups of beans, you would need a total of 5 + 5 or 10 cups of water.

6. Example 1 Continue this pattern until you reach 4 cups. Method 2Multiply each quantity by the same number. Since 1 × 4 = 4, multiply each quantity by 4.

7. Example 1 Answer: So, you would need 20 cups of water for 4 cups of beans.
