Arecipe that makes 36 oatmeal cookies requires 1.5 cups of oatmeal. how many cups of oatmeal would be needed to make 60 oatmeal cookies?

To solve this problem, we are going to use a proportion, letting the variable x represent the unknown number of cups of oatmeal that we need.

1.5 cups/36 cookies = x cups/60 cookies

To simplify a proportion like this, we can use cross-multiplication. This means multiplying the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction and setting it equal to the product of the other numerator and denominator. This is modeled below:

(36)(x) = (1.5)(60)

To simplify, we begin by multiplying out each side.

36x = 90

Finally, we divide both sides of the equation by 36.

x = 2.5

This means that we need 2.5 cups of oatmeal to make the cookies.

Hope this helps!

1gm = 1000mg so 0.1gm = 1000mg

first, convert the weight to kg

160lb * 1kg/2.2lb = 72.7kg

next, the dose

72.7kg * 100mg/kg = 7270mg

i believe so, according to my "strange" way of figuring out weird math problems like this.
