Following are the calculation of cups of sugar:
Given:
\(1 \frac{1}{4}\) cups sugar makes \(20\) cookies
To find:
calculate cups of sugar in making 14 cookies.
Solution:
\(1 \frac{1}{4}\) cups sugar makes \(20\) cookies
Which applies:
\(\to \frac{5}{4}\) cups sugar makes \(20\) cookies
For 14 cookies calculating the total cups:
Assuming the cups of sugar=x
then
\(\to x=((\frac{5}{4})\times 14) \div 20\\\\\to x=(\frac{70}{4}) \div 20\\\\\to x=( 17.5) \div 20\\\\\to x=\frac{17.5}{20}\\\\\to x= 0.875\)
Therefore, the final answer is "0.875".
