Option 1: 2.4 cups of sugar and 0.06 cups of cinnamon
Option 2: 2.6 cups of sugar and 0.06 cups of cinnamon
Option 3: 2.4 cups of sugar and 0.07 cups of cinnamon
Option 4: 2.6 cups of sugar and 0.07 cups of cinnamon

Answer 1

Rej needs 2.4 cups of sugar and 0.06 cups of cinnamon.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the total amount of sugar and cinnamon Rej needs, we can multiply the amount of each ingredient per batch by the number of batches. Each batch requires 0.4 cups of sugar and 0.01 cups of cinnamon. Since Rej is making 6 batches, he will need:

0.4 cups/batch * 6 batches = 2.4 cups of sugar

0.01 cups/batch * 6 batches = 0.06 cups of cinnamon

Therefore, Rej needs 2.4 cups of sugar and 0.06 cups of cinnamon for his cookies.
