I'm hoping Connexus gets its act together and starts randomly selecting the test questions and their order.
To solve this problem, we can create a proportion using the given information.
Let's set up the proportion:
3 cups / 48 cookies = x cups / 72 cookies
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and solve for x.
Cross-multiplying gives us:
48 * x = 3 * 72
Simplifying the equation:
48x = 216
Next, we can divide both sides of the equation by 48 to isolate x:
x = 216 / 48
x = 4.5 cups
So the amount of flour needed to make 72 cookies is 4.5 cups.
Therefore, the answer is B. 3/48 = x/72, x = 4.5 cups.
