To find out how many cookies each cookie yields from one cup of sugar, we need to first examine the yield of Cookie A, as provided in the table:
For Cookie A:
- From 2 cups of sugar: 80 cookies, so from 1 cup: \( \frac{80}{2} = 40 \) cookies
- From 3 cups of sugar: 120 cookies, so from 1 cup: \( \frac{120}{3} = 40 \) cookies
- From 4 cups of sugar: 160 cookies, so from 1 cup: \( \frac{160}{4} = 40 \) cookies
So, Cookie A yields 40 cookies per cup of sugar.
Next, you mentioned Cookie B, but did not provide its data. If you can give Cookie B's yields from the cups of sugar (for example, how many cookies yielded for specific cups), I can help you calculate Cookie B's yield and compare it with Cookie A's yield of 40 cookies per cup of sugar.
Once you provide Cookie B's data, we can conclude which cookie yields more cookies per cup of sugar.
