Final answer:

Therefore, the number of rows of balls will be equal to the total number of balls, which is 28. So, the answer is C. 7. Sophie will need to make 7 rows of balls for the cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of rows of balls Sophie will need to make, we need to determine the total number of balls she has.

Since she has 14 cups of dough and needs to make 28 batches of cookies, we can multiply the number of cups of dough per batch (1) by the number of batches to find the total number of balls.

So, 1 x 28 = 28 balls.

Now, we need to determine how many rows of balls can be formed. Since Sophie is making 1-inch-sized balls, we can assume that there will be one ball per row.

Therefore, the number of rows of balls will be equal to the total number of balls, which is 28.

So, the answer is C. 7.
