A cookie recipes call for 2 3/4 cups of flour and 2 1/2 cups of sugar. Will you be using more flour or sugar to bake the cookies

more flour cause you put the fractions over the same denominator and change to an improper fraction to get 2 3/4 = 11/4 and 2 1/2 = 5/2 = 10/4 and 11/4 is greater than 10/4.
