Answer:

[tex]\frac56[/tex] cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The serving size is proportional to the amount of milk used, so we have

[tex]\frac{2/3}{4/5}=\frac x1[/tex]

where [tex]x[/tex] is the amount of milk needed for 1 serving. The right side is simply [tex]x[/tex]. We now simplify

[tex]x=\frac23\cdot\frac54=\frac{10}{12}=\frac56[/tex]

Therefore [tex]\frac56[/tex] cups of milk are needed for 1 serving.
