Ginny needs 2\frac{1}{4} cups of sugar to make 36 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sugar cups required for 24 cookies = 1\frac{1}{2}=\frac{3}{2}\ cups

Ratio of sugar cups to cookies = \frac{3}{2}:24

Let,

x be the number of cups needed for 36 cookies.

Ratio of sugar cups to cookies = x:36\\

Using proportion;

Ratio of sugar cups to cookies :: Ratio of sugar cups to cookies

\frac{3}{2}:24::x:36

Product of mean = Product of extreme

24*x=\frac{3}{2}*36\\24x=54

Dividing both sides by 24

\frac{24x}{24}=\frac{54}{24}\\x=\frac{9}{4}\\x=2\frac{1}{4}

Ginny needs 2\frac{1}{4} cups of sugar to make 36 cookies.
