The most cookies Heidy can make is 36 cookies.

How to calculate how many cookies can Heidy make?

To know how many cookies Heidy can make, you have to take into account the following information:

12 cookies need the following ingredients:

  • 125g butter
  • 200g flour
  • 50g sugar

In the case in which Heidy has more ingredients, we must carry out the following operations:

Divide the quantities, in the reference quantity we have:

  • 500g of butter ÷ 125g of butter = 4
  • 700g flour ÷ 200g flour = 3.5
  • 250g of sugar ÷ 50g of sugar = 5

According to the above, we must take into account the lowest value of all because if that ingredient is enough, we can infer that the rest of the ingredients also.

So the number of cookies Heidy can make are:

12 × 3.5 = 42
