    If 1/2 cup of milk makes 8 donuts. How much cups it takes to make 28 donuts?

    Set up a proportion of cups to donuts, where c is the number of cups required to make 28 donuts:
    1/2/8 = c/28

    Cross multiply:
    28(1/2) = 8c
    8c = 14

    Plugging this equation into our search engine, we get:
    c = 1.75
