To answer this question, you should set up a proportion that demonstrates the ratio of chocolate chips to cookies.
[tex]\frac{0.5}{36} =\frac{x}{120}[/tex]
36 and 120 are used because 1 dozen=12.
Cross multiply and solve for x to get the answer.
[tex]60=36y[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{3}=x[/tex]
The answer is [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] cups.
The number of cups of chocolate chips that should be used for 10 dozen cookies is 1 2/3 cups.
Based on the information given, the expression to solve the question will be:
0.5/3 = x/10
Cross multiply
3 × x = 0.5 × 10
3x = 5.
x = 5/3
x = 1 2/3 cups
Therefore, the number of cups of chocolate chips that should be used for 10 dozen cookies will be 1 2/3 cups.
