Answer: Valerie bakes 60 cupcakes

Explanation:

To find how many Valerie bakes, you have to first start with finding the amount Jennifer bakes.

We know that Rabia bakes 24 cupcakes.

Jennifer bakes twice as much, so 2 x 24 is the amount she bakes. Jennifer bakes 48 cupcakes.

Valerie makes a quarter more than Jennifer, so 1.25 x 48 is the amount she makes. Valerie makes 60 cupcakes.

Hope I helped! :)
