A baby drinks 5 ounces of baby formula every 3-4 hours. If it takes 1 unpacked level scoop and 2 ounces of water to make 2 ounces of formula and it takes 4 unpacked level scoops and 8 ounces of water to make 8 ounces of formula How many scoops does it take to make 5 ounces of formula?
I really need to get it right because the instructions say: "Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe harm". I think I will start using that phrase when I go back to work......in 16 days.

I think I might add that comment to my signature line in Outlook.
"Failure to follow these instructions could result in severe harm".
How great is that!!
Yay for Alisa. I support her answer.no severe harm for Sydney!
just remember 1/2 scoop for every ounce of water and you can do your own counting for however much you want. That has been my favorite cartoon since college (where I was a math major *gasp!*)
Kim...when Vicki was a baby these instructions confused me, as well. That's when I started buying the canned ready-to-serve formula. A bit more expensive, but no measuring and no harm! ;)
OMG, you are kidding, right? kays
And this is why i just love you!
I think using that phrase at work is awesome! I am horrible at math too...I would be perplexed at this equation. I say we go with Alisa's answer!
i wasn't a math major either - which is why i went into law. :) i love the "warning" i think i am going to have that one framed!

paula's answer is the best-it will help with any size feeding you little math whiz you.
I am in the category that loves you! I, too, am horrible at math. I almost cried during the GRE. I can honestly say, I am probably worse than you at math!
