A baker is using a cookie recipe that calls for 3 ¼ cups of flour to yield 64 cookies. How much flour will the baker need to make 130 cookies using the same recipe?
6 77/128 cups
5 5/128 cups
10 1/28 cups
4 81/128 cups
Correct Answer : A
we are asked to find the number of cups of flour that will be used to make 130 cookies.
First, we convert 3 ¼ into improper fraction as:
Letting x to be the number of cups of flour, we set up a proportion equation with number of cookies on numerator and number of cups of flour on the denominator becomes:
Solve the value of x by cross-products
Dividing both sides by 64, the above equation result to
Thus, the number of cups of flour needed to make 130 cookies is 845/128 cups, which is equal to 6 77/128 cups.

we find the value of x by applying the absolute conditions to the given equation.
First, add 2 to both sides of equation
Add 10 to both sides of the equation
Next, we apply the absolute rule:
If u=a, a>0, then u=a or u=-a
In this case a=5, which is greater 0.
The first condition becomes
Solving for x
The second condition becomes
Solving for x
Then, the value of x is -4/3 or 2.
