Hello,
I have a recipe for a cake which requires 100gm of flour and 100gms of butter and two 7" pans. If i change it to a 9" pan, do i a) multiply the weights of flour and butter by 9/7? or b) multiply by ratio of areas i.e multiply by 81/49 (9^2/7^2) ? Thank you for your time Saptarshi |

The latter will give you the same depth of layer. And congratulations on doing the maths right!! So many don't have a clue... Dave |

Probably as many as don't know the difference between the diameter and the radius -- or the circumference and the area. 8 ![]() -- Larry |
