Answer:
15 cookies
Step-by-step explanation:
10 cookies is equivalent to 2 scoops of flour.
You need to find how many cookies they can make with just 1 scoop of flour.
So, to do that, you'd need to do 10/2, which is 5.
10 represents the number of cookies, and 2 represents the scoops of flour. (5 represents the number of cookies you can make with 1 scoop of flour.)
This will work with any certain amount of flour, just use the equation 5 times X, where X is the amount of flour.
In this certain problem, they gave us the scoops of flour.
Replace X with 3.
3 times 5 = 15.
15 cookies.
