Question

A cookie recipe calls for 2 1/4 cups of flour.the yield of the recipe is two dozen cookies.how much flour goes into each cookie?

Answer 1

a dozen is 12 so two dozens is 12*2=24
The amount of flour is 2 1/4 or 9/4 cups
To find how much flour goes into each cookie divide 2 1/4 by 24
so (9/4)/(24)=3/32 or 0.09375
Therefore 3/32 cups go into each cookie
