Solution:
Formula: Factor = Desire number of Yield/ Standard Yield = 50÷8 = 6.25
Formula: Quantity used × Factor = Final weights needed
Egg Yolk - 3 × 6.25 = 18.75 egg yolks
Melted Butter - 30 × 6.25 = 187.5 grams
Condense Milk - 250 × 6.25 = 1,562.5 ml.
Vanilla – 5 × 6.25 = 31.25 ml.
Quick Melt Cheese - 120 × 6.25 = 750 grams
Desiccated Coconut - 600 × 6.25 = 3,750 grams
Sugar – 240 × 6.25 = 1,500 grams
To solve Final Cost
Egg yolk – 18.75 ÷ 1 × 10 = 187.5
Melted Butter – 187.5÷ 225 × 85 = 70.83
Condensed Milk – 1,562.5 ÷ 320 × 75 = 366.21
Vanilla – 31.25 ÷ 230 × 50 = 6.79
Quick Melt Cheese – 750 ÷ 250 × 150 = 450
Desiccated Coconut – 3,750 ÷ 1000 × 100 = 375
Sugar – 1,500 ÷ 1000 × 80 = 120
