Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given In a cookie recipe , 1 2/3 cups of milk makes 16 cookies . How many cups of milk are needed to make 24 cookies

• We need to solve the problem by unitary method.
• 16 cookies can be made from 1 2/3 = 5/3 cups of milk.
• Therefore 1 cookie can be made from 5/3 / 16 = 5/48  cups of milk.
• So 1 cookie can be made from 5/48 cups of milk
• Therefore 24 cookies can be made from 5/48 x 24
•                                                       = 5/2 = 2 1/2 cups of milk
• So 2 1/2 cups of milk are needed to make 24 cookies.
