Options :

A cookies per pound

B. O pounds per hour

c. cookies per hour

D. hours per cookie

Answer: C.) Cookies per hour

Explanation:

Given the following :

Number of cookies baked = 225 cookies

Total time taken = 5 hours

Amount of sugar used = 8 pounds

Tara divides 225 by 5; 225 / 5 = 45

Rate gives the amount or number of times something occurs within a given period, Hence

The rate obtained by Tara corresponds to the ratio of ; (Total cookies baked / total time taken) = (225 / 5), this translates to the amount or number of cookies baked within an hour.
