Solution

The correct option is C $\frac{1}{10}$
Fraction of a bowl of flour used for a large cake $= \frac{3}{5}$

Fraction of a bowl of flour required for $\frac{1}{6} t h$ the size of a large cake $= \frac{3}{5} \times \frac{1}{6} = \frac{3}{30} = \frac{1}{10}$

Hence, Sara will need $\frac{1}{10} t h$ of a bowl of flour to bake a cake that is $\frac{1}{6} t h$ the size of a large cake.
