It looks like you've uploaded an image of a "Basic Math Recipe Worksheet" that includes a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. The worksheet asks you to adjust the recipe to make
24 cookies instead of the original amount (which appears to be 12). Let's solve this step by step.

🔍 Step 1: Understand the Original Recipe
The original recipe makes
12 cookies and includes the following ingredients:
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
---
🎯 Goal: Adjust the recipe to make 24 cookies
Since 24 is
double 12, we need to
double all the ingredients.
---
✔ Double Each Ingredient
| Original (for 12 cookies) | Doubled (for 24 cookies) |
|---------------------------|----------------------------|
| 1 cup sugar | 2 cups sugar |
| 1/2 cup butter | 1 cup butter |
| 1 egg | 2 eggs |
| 1 tsp vanilla | 2 tsp vanilla |
| 1 cup flour | 2 cups flour |
| 1/2 cup chocolate chips | 1 cup chocolate chips |
---
✔ Final Answer (Adjusted Recipe for 24 Cookies):
-
2 cups sugar
-
1 cup butter
-
2 eggs
-
2 teaspoons vanilla
-
2 cups flour
-
1 cup chocolate chips

💡 Explanation:
This is a
proportional scaling problem. Since we're doubling the number of cookies, each ingredient must also be doubled to maintain the same taste and texture. This is a basic concept in ratios and proportions.
> Example: If 1 cup of sugar makes 12 cookies, then 2 cups will make 24 cookies — same ratio.

Let me know if you'd like to scale it differently (e.g., 6 cookies or 36 cookies)!
