Final answer:

To bake 2 trays of cookies, Bella needs 3/10 cups of flower for each tray. Each tray will yield 3 cookies, therefore Bella will bake a total of 6 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, first, we need to calculate how many cookies Bella can make with 1/10 cups of flower that is used for every 50 chips. If there are 150 cookies in a tray, the number of chips needed is 150 / 50 = 3. Therefore, Bella needs 3 * 1/10 = 3/10 cups of flower for each tray. Now, we know that with 3/5 cups of flower Bella can make 6 cookies. To find out how many cookies she can bake with 3/10 cups, we'll have to do some more calculations. So, for each cookie Bella needs 3/5 / 6 = 1/10 cup of flower. Therefore, with 3/10 cups of flower, she can bake 3/10 / 1/10 = 3 cookies per tray. Finally, if she is making 2 trays, she will bake 3 * 2 = 6 cookies in total.
