If the first measuring cup holds about 2 cups of liquid...

how much liquid do you think cup 2 will hold?	how much liquid do you think cup 3 will hold?	how much liquid do you think cup 4 will hold?
how much liquid do you think cup 5 will hold?	how many times will you need to pour cup 2 to fill cup 1?	how many times will you need to pour cup 3 to fill cup 1?
how many times will you need to pour cup 4 to fill cup 1?	how many times will you need to pour cup 5 to fill cup 1?
