(i) To get 8 from 4, we have to multiply 4 by 2. So, multiply numerator and denominator by 2. Hence, the missing number is 6 i.e. 6 glasses of juice shared equally among 8 friends. (ii) To get 12 from 4, we have to multiply 4 by 3. So, multiply numerator and denominator by 3. Hence, the missing number is 9 i.e. 12 kg of sugar divided equally in 9 bags. (iii) We can multiply both numerator and denominator by 2. Hence, the missing numbers are 14 and 10 i.e. 14 gulabjamuns divided among 10 children.
