Question

A recipe for shortbread cookies contains exactly three ingredients: flour, sugar, and butter. Each of these ingredients are measured in cups. The table below shows the amount of each ingredient required to make three different batches of cookies. Drag and drop the missing measurements into the blank boxes to complete the table.















Cups of Butter Cups of Flour Cups of Sugar Number of Cookies in a Batch

Answer 1

To fill in the missing measurements in the table for shortbread cookies, we would need specific data or values to start with. Typically, shortbread cookie recipes have a ratio of ingredients that can be applied across batches. A common ratio for shortbread is 1 part sugar, 2 parts butter, and 4 parts flour.

Here’s an example table based on this common ratio where we assume three different batch sizes:

| Cups of Butter | Cups of Flour | Cups of Sugar | Number of Cookies in a Batch |
|----------------|----------------|----------------|-------------------------------|
| 1 | 2 | 1 | 12 |
| 1.5 | 3 | 1.5 | 18 |
| 2 | 4 | 2 | 24 |

Please adjust the numbers according to the specific requirements or the number of cookies you want per batch. If you provide me with more details or an existing part of the table, I can help complete it more accurately!
