A recipe for oatmeal cookies makes 24 cookies. The recipe calls for 2 1/2 cups of flour. Penny wants to make 3/4 of the recipe. How much flour will penny need ? How many cookies will the recipe make ?

Penny needs cups of flour to make 3/4 of the recipe.

The recipe will make 18 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a recipe for oatmeal cookies makes 24 cookies. Penny wants to make 3/4 of the recipe.

To find the number of cookies that will 3/4 of the recipe will make, we need to find 3/4 of 24 as shown below:

Therefore, the recipe will make 18 cookies.

We are also told that recipe calls for 2 1/2 cups of flour. To find amount of flour needed for 3/4 of the recipe, we will multiply 2 1/2 cups by 3/4 as:

Therefore, Penny needs cups of flour to make 3/4 of the recipe.

18

step-by-step explanation:

draw the shape and you will see that f and k are actually at adjacent vertices (points of the hexagon that are neighboring).   so find the distance between (1,2) and (4,2).   that is easy since (1,2) and (4,2) is just a vertical distance to count, which is 3.   it is a regular polygon which means all sides are congruent.   you have 6 sides (hexa) so multiply 6 by 3 to receive 18.
