Answer:
Explanation:
step 1: you know that 1/2 c of oil makes 20 cookies.
step 2: if you only have 1/4 c (half of 1/2 cup), then you can make 10 cookies.
Step 3: 1/8 c would make 5 cookies.
We need 1/8 cup
We can use ratios to solve
1/2 cup x cups
------------ = -----------------
20 cookies 5 cookies
Using cross products
5 * 1/2 = 20x
Divide each side by 20
5/2 * 1/20 = 20x/20
5/40 =x
1/8 =x
