Answer:
600 ml
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
240 ml of milk provides about 8 grams of protein,
That is, the ratio of grams of protein provided and milk = [tex]\frac{8}{240}[/tex]
Let x be the quantity of milk in ml that provides 20 grams of protein,
So, the ratio of grams of protein provided and milk = [tex]\frac{20}{x}[/tex]
[tex]\implies \frac{8}{240}=\frac{20}{x}[/tex]
By cross multiplication,
8x = 4800
Divide both sides by 8,
x = [tex]\frac{4800}{8}[/tex] = 600
Hence, 600 ml milk should be needed to provide 20 grams of protein.
