Maritza is baking cookies to bring to school and share with her friends on her birthday. The recipe requires 3 eggs for every 2 cups of sugar. To have enough cookies for all her friends, Maritza determined she would need 12 eggs. If her mom got 6 cups of sugar, does Marissa have enough sugar to make the cookies? Why or why not?Enter your question



Answer :

no, because if you work with fraction and do [tex] \frac{3}{2} [/tex] (3 eggs for every 2 cups) then you would be multiplying 3x4 and now you have tot do that to the demominator so she would need 8 cups of sugar

No, she doesn't have enough sugar.

Since Maritza is determined that she would need 12 eggs, the number of sugar needed will be:

= 2/3 × 12 = 8 cups of sugar

But since her mom got her 6 cups of sugar, that means that she doesn't have enough sugar.
