Answer:

2 1/2 or 5/2 cups of milk

Explanation:

if 16 cookies are made from 1 2/3 cups of milk which equals 5/3 cups of milk that means that you need 5/2 or 2 1/2 cups of milk to make 24 cookies because you need to multiply 5/3 by 16 and then multiply 5/48 by 24 which is 5/2 or 2 1/2 cups of milk
