Answer:

117 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

two dozen cookies calls for 234cups of sugar

2 dozen cookies = 234 cups of sugar

How much sugar is needed to make one dozen cookies?

Let x = cups of sugar needed

1 dozen cookies = x cups of sugar

2 dozen cookies : 234 cups of sugar = 1 dozen cookies : x cups of sugar

2 : 234 = 1 : x

2 / 234 = 1 / x

Cross product

2*x = 234 * 1

2x = 234

x = 234 / 2

= 117 cups
