Lets list what we know:

1.5 cups = 18 cookies

How many cups in 1 cookie will help us find the answer:

1.5 / 18 (1.5 cups per 18 cookies)

divide both sides by 1.5 (to get how many cookies in 1 cup)

1 / 12 (1 cup = 12 cookies)

Now, how many times does 12 fit in 30?

30/12 = 2.5

This means it takes 2 and a half cups of raisins to get 30 cookies.

If anything is still unclear please comment,
