5l four = 1l of sugar
2l flour = 0.4l Sugar

Answer:

\(\frac{2}{5}\:liter\)  of sugar is needed for 2 liter of flour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

5 liter of flour is added to 1 liter of sugar.

We have to find quantity of sugar required for 2 liter of flour.

Quantity of Sugar for 5 liter of flour = 1 liter

So, Quantity of Sugar for 1 liter of flour = \(\frac{1}{5}\) liter

⇒ Quantity of Sugar for 2 liter of flour = \(\frac{1}{5}\times2=\frac{2}{5}\) liter

Therefore, \(\frac{2}{5}\:liter\)  of sugar is needed for 2 liter of flour.
