To determine how much sugar is in each cookie, we need to divide the total amount of sugar used (3/4 cup) by the number of cookies made (2 dozen).
First, we need to convert 2 dozen into a single number. Since 1 dozen is equal to 12, then 2 dozen is equal to 2 x 12 = 24 cookies.
Next, we divide the total amount of sugar used (3/4 cup) by the number of cookies made (24 cookies).
3/4 cup รท 24 cookies = 1/8 cup of sugar per cookie.
Therefore, each cookie contains 1/8 cup of sugar.
