Question

Jane is baking cookies for a large party.She has a recipe that will make one batch of two dozen cookies,and she decides to make five batches. To make five batches,she finds that she wil need 12.5 cups of flour and 15 eggs. write a equation to describe each stuation then solve the probem.d. If jane only has a dozen of eggs on hand, how many more does she need to make five batches.e. If she doesnt go out to get more eggs, how many batches can she make? how many cookies will that be? Help Me for A medal

Answer 1

its a word probelm

Answer 2

um foe e.15d*12/5=x be a good solver

Answer 3

i not good at long word probelms can you help me

Answer 4

well, the whole query boils down to, how much flour and eggs does it take to make 1 batch of cookies, 1 batch of cookies being 2 dozen or 24 cookies

Answer 5

so we know that say... she found that to make 5 batches, she'll need 12.5 cups of flour and 15 eggs, so we can say that
\(\bf 12.5flour + 15eggs = 5batches\\
\textit{how much would there be in 1 batch? let's divide by 5 both sides}\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{12.5flour}{5}+\cfrac{15eggs}{5}=\cfrac{5batches}{5}\implies \square?
\)

what would that give you?

Answer 6

4.5

Answer 7

\(\bf \cfrac{12.5flour}{5}+\cfrac{15eggs}{5}=\cfrac{5batches}{5}\implies 2.5flour+3eggs = 1batch\

so that's how much is needed to make 1 batch, or 24, cookies
and thus the equation will be that I gather

Answer 8

shoot.... lemme redo that \(\bf (\bf \cfrac{12.5flour}{5}+\cfrac{15eggs}{5}=\cfrac{5batches}{5}\implies 2.5flour+3eggs = 1batch\)

so that's how much is needed to make 1 batch, or 24, cookies
and thus the equation will be that I gather

Answer 9

now if Jane only had a dozen, that is 12, eggs
how much more does she need to make 5 batches?

Answer 10

that should be fairly simple, since it's given

Answer 11

now what if she doesn't go get more eggs, and only uses 12 eggs? how many batches can she make with that?

well,notice the equation of the 1batch
let's make our "eggs" = 12, so 12 eggs
what number can we multiply our eggs in our equation, to make them from 3 to 12?

Answer 12
