Question

So I need help again so here is the question “My mom is baking cookies for a party. The recipe requires 2 eggs for every 4

cups of sugar To have enough cookies for the party, she determined she would
need 12 eggs. If my mom has 25 cups of sugar in the pantry, does she heve
enough sugar to make the cookies”

Answer 1

She has enough sugar.

Explanation:

Let x = cups of sugar needed

eggs/cups of sugar = 2/4 = 1/2

12 eggs/x = 1/2

24 = x

Since she as 25 cups available and she needs 24 cups, it looks like she has enough sugar with 1 cup left over. I hope she is making chocolate chip cookies.
