Explanation:

For 3 scoops = 18 cookies

Lets use the unitary method,

So for 1 scoop, how many cookies?

So, 18 /3 = 6

So, 1 scoop = 6 cookies

So for 4 scoops we will multiply by 6 (as 1 scoop = 6 cookies)

So, 4 x 6 = 24

So, 24 cookies can be made if we add 4 scoops of flour

4 scoops = 24 cookies
