Recipe A calls for 2 cups of sugar and makes 48 cookies. Recipe B calls for 3 cups of sugar and makes 54 of the same-sized cookies. Determine which recipe contains more sugar in each cookie. Use complete sentences to explain your reasoning.

4 answers

a. 2cups/48cookies = 1/24 cup/cookie.

b. 3cups/54cookies = 1/18 cups/cookie.

1/18 is larger than 1/24, because when two fractions have the same numerator,
the fraction with the smaller numerator is larger.
