Answer:
He can make only one batch of cookies.
Step-by-step explanation:
Just by mental math you can say he can make maximum one batch of cookies.
Total sugar = 10 cups
sugar used for lemonade = 2 cups
leftover sugar = 8 cups
For 1 batch of cookie sugar needed = 11/2
which means 5 and 1/2 cups
And he's just left with 8 cups of sugar after lemonade
8 - 5 1/2 = 2 1/2 which is not enough for 2nd batch
That means the maximum number of cookies batches is 1.
Another way to solve it by inequality:
2+Il/2 X <u><</u> 10
11/2 X <u><</u> 8
11X <u><</u> 16
X <u><</u> 1 6/11
So he can make only one batch of cookies.
