Deepen understanding of how to calculate ingredients needed for recipes by using this resource.

This Year 6 Recipes Reasoning and Problem Solving worksheet uses knowledge of ratio and proportion to scale given recipes up or down to calculate the amount of ingredients needed. Children will identify errors in recipes that have been scaled up or down, reason if the correct amount of ingredients are available to adapt a recipe for more or less people and finally use given recipes to scale ingredients up or down for different numbers of people. All answers are also included so that marking is as easy as possible!

A varied fluency resource is also available for this small step.
