Question

Ray is baking cookies for a bake sale. He uses 15.25 ounces of flour to bake 4 batches of cookies on Monday. If he uses 8 ounces of flour using the same cookie recipe on Tuesday, what would be the best estimate of the number of batches of cookies he baked on Tuesday?

A.
5 batches
B.
2 batches
C.
1 batch
D.
3 batches

Answer 1

1 Batch... i think.

Explanation:

So, like, half of 15 is 7.5. That makes two batches. I don't think we're supposed to say 0.5=1 batch here, cause that is unrealistic.

Answer 2

b

Explanation:

15.25/4 = 3.8125 per bach

8/3.8125= roughly 2 so b is it
