To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion.
We know that there is a direct relationship between the number of cookies and the amount of chocolate chips needed. This means that as the number of cookies increases, the amount of chocolate chips needed will also increase.
Let's set up the proportion:
1.5 cups / 27 cookies = B cups / 54 cookies
To solve for B, we can cross multiply:
27B = 1.5 cups * 54 cookies
27B = 81 cups
Now, we can solve for B:
B = 81 cups / 27
B = 3 cups
Therefore, you need 3 cups of chocolate chips to make 54 cookies.
The amount of chocolate chips, in cups, used in a cookie recibe is shown.
Cups of chocolate chips: 1.5, 2, B
Total number of cookies: 27, 36,54
How many cups of chocolate chips, B, are needed to make 54 cookies?
