Question

A cookie recipe for 60 cookies calls for 4 cups of flour. How much flour is needed to make 90 cookies?

Answer 1

6 cups

Explanation:

because if you / the 60 by 4 you would see that 1 cup = 15 cookies. Then add 15 till you get to 90

Answer 2

Answer: 6 cups

Explanation:

60 cookies = 4 cups

60 + 30 = 90, and half of 60 is 30. So half of 4 cups is 2 cups.

4 cups plus 2 cups is 6 cups!
