Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Original   Doubled    Ingredient  

1½ c        ⟶ 3 c          all-purpose flour  (2×1½ = 2×1 + 2×½ = 2+1 = 3)

1 tsp        ⟶ 2 tsp      salt  

1 Tbsp    ⟶ 2 Tbsp   sugar

1 Tbsp    ⟶ 2 Tbsp   baking powder

⅓ c         ⟶ ⅔ c        vegetable shortening

⅔ c        ⟶ 1⅓ c        buttermilk  (2×⅔ = ⁴/₃ = 1⅓)
