Answer 1

He will need 960 sprinkles for 60 cookies.

This can be found by first finding how many sprinkles are on 1 cookie. To do this, you divide 384 by 24, to get 16 sprinkels on 1 cookie. Then you multiply 16 by 60 to get 960 (the number of sprinkles for 60 cookies).

I hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

Stan would need 960 sprinkles to make 60 cookies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

Since we are given 3 values, which are the amount of sprinkles to make 24 cookies, 60 cookies, and give us one variable. We can use the Rule of Three technique to find the amount of sprinkles needed for 60 cookies. This technique is shown in the picture that is attached below.

24 cookies   ⇒   384 sprinkles

60 cookies   ⇒   x

$\frac{60*384}{24} = x$

$960 sprinkles = x$

Therefore, we can see that Stan would need 960 sprinkles to make 60 cookies.
