Number of cups used for making one batch of cookie :-


= 2 (1)/(2) \: cups

Number of cups of flour I use = 7

number of batches of cookie I make :-


= 7 / 2(1)/(2)


= (7)/(1) / ((2 * 2 + 1))/(2)


= (7)/(1) / (5)/(2)


= (7)/(1) * (2)/(5)


= (14)/(5)


= 2(4)/(5) \: batches

Therefore , I have made :-


2 (4)/(5) \: batches \: of \: cookies
