Answer:

3 3/4 cups flour

Step-by-step explanation:

If Marie needs 2.25 cups of flour for 36 dozen cookies, then our equations would be:

2.25f = 36

f         = 16

3.75f  = 60

Note:

Dozen = 12

3 dozen = 3 • 12 = 36

2 1/4 cups of flour = 36 cookies


Now let’s figure out how much flour Marie needs for 1 cookie:

2 1/4 divided by 36 = 1/16

She needs 1/16 cups of flower for 1 cookie.

Now we need to find out how much she needs to 60 cookies:

1/16 • 60 = 15/4 = 3 3/4

Your answer is B. 3 3/4
