a cookie recipe calls for 3 and 1/4 cup of flour the recipe makes three dozen cookies how much flour is needed to make 144 cookies

Respuesta :

Answer:

13 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

A recipe of cookie requires amount of flour = [tex]3\frac{1}{4}[/tex] cups

or amount of flour required = [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex] cups

Now 3 dozens of cookies or 36 cookies require flour = [tex]\frac{13}{4}[/tex] cups

So 1 cookie will require flour = [tex]\frac{13}{4\times 36}[/tex]

Therefore, 144 cookies will require flour = [tex]\frac{13\times 144}{4\times 36}[/tex] =  13 cups

13 cups of flour will be required to prepare 144 cookies.
