The ratio of sugar to flour is 5:1. So for every 5 oz of sugar you add, only 1 oz of flour is added.

For every 10 oz of sugar, there is 2 oz of flour.

For every 15 oz of sugar, there is 3 oz of flour.

For every 20 oz of sugar, there is 4 oz of flour.

For every 25 oz of sugar, there is 5 oz of flour.

For every 30 oz of sugar, there is 6 oz of flour.

So, for every 35 oz of sugar, there is 7 oz of flour.
