PLEASE EXPLAIN THE WORK SHOWN

Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 ½ cups unsalted butter

1 ¼ cups granulated sugar

1 ¼ cups brown sugar

2 teaspoon vanilla

2 eggs

3 ½ cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Serving/Yield: 3 dozen cookies

How many cups of flour do you need for each egg?

WORK: 3 1/2 cups of flour.....and 2 eggs

(7/2) / 2 =

7/2 * 1/2 =

7/4 or 1 3/4.....so u need 1 3/4 cups of flour per egg <==

EXPLANATION:_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rewrite your ingredients to serve twice as many cookies.

WORK: (1.5 * 2) = 3 cups unsalted butter

(1.25 * 2) = 2 1/2 cups granulated sugar

(1.25 * 2) = 2 1/2 cups brown sugar

(2 * 2) = 4 teaspoons vanilla

(2 * 2) = 4 eggs

(3.5 * 2) = 7 cups all purpose flour

(2 * 2) = 4 teaspoons baking soda

(4 * 2) = 8 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

(Serving/Yield: 6 dozen cookies)

Double the ingredients...multiply by 2

EXPLANATION:________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Rewrite your ingredients to serve half as many cookies. Show your work and explain your strategies.

WORK:

(1.5 / 2) = 3/4 cup unsalted butter

(1.25 / 2) = 5/8 cup granulated sugar

(1.25 / 2) = 5/8 cup brown sugar

(2/2) = 1 teaspoon vanillA

(2/2) = 1 egg

(3.5 / 2) = 1 3/4 cup all purpose flour

(2/2) = 1 teaspoon baking soda

(4/2) = 2 cups chocolate chips

Serving/Yield: 1 1/2 dozen cookies

cut ur ingredient in half...divide by 2

EXPLANATION: _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Complete the rate table using the recipe of the cookie of your choice to compare the number of cookies made to the amount of vanilla used in your choice.

WORK: cookies : 18 6 108 180

vanilla : 1 1/3 6 10

EXPLANATION:_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Unsalted butter comes in 16-ounce and 24-ounce packages. A 16-ounce unsalted butter costs $2.99 and 24-ounce package costs $4.18. There are 8 ounces in one cup.

a) How many ounces of butter are needed in the cookie recipe of your choice?

WORK:

a. 3 dozen cookies requires 1 1/2 cups butter

8 oz = 1 cup and 1/2 oz = 4 cups so 1 1/2 cups = (8 + 4) = 12 oz <==

EXPLANATION:_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

b) If you plan to bake a large batch of cookies and buy a lot of packages of unsalted butter, which is a better buy or cheaper, those in 16-ounce or 24-ounce packages?

WORK:

16 oz for 2.99

2.99/16 = 0.186 rounds to 0.19 per oz

24 oz for 4.18

4.18/24 = 0.174 rounds to 0.17 per oz.

therefore, the better buy (cheapest) is the 24 oz package <=

EXPLANATION: _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

You plan to sell the cookies you baked. You sell them at a rate of $1.60 for every four cookies.

a) What is the unit price of the cookies?

WORK:

1.60/4 = 0.40

the unit price is $ 0.40 per cookie

EXPLANATION:

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

b) How many cookies do you need to sell to earn $120?

WORK: The cookies sell for 0.40 per cookie...and u want to make $ 120...

0.40x = 120

x = 120 / 0.40

x = 300

need to sell 300 cookies

EXPLANATION:_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

How many cookies do you need to sell to earn at least 60% of $120? 40% of $120?

WORK:

60% of 120 = 0.60(120) = 72

0.40x > = 72

x > = 72/0.40

x > = 180

sell at least 180 cookies

40% of 120 = 0.40(120) = 48

0.40x > = 48

x > = 48 / 0.40

x > = 120

sell at least 120 cookies
