Answer
Since one recipe makes 60 cookies, we can write the unit fraction LaTeX: \frac{1\text{ recipe}}{60\text{ cookies}}1 recipe 60 cookies. Since one recipe uses 1.5 cups of butter, we can write the unit fraction LaTeX: \frac{1.5\text{ cups butter}}{1\text{ recipe}}1.5 cups butter 1 recipe. And since 1 cup = 16 Tbsp., we can write the unit fraction LaTeX: \frac{16\text{ Tbsp}}{1\text{ cup}}16 Tbsp 1 cup.
Multiply:
LaTeX: \frac{150\text{ cookies}}{1} \cdot \frac{1\text{ recipe}}{60\text{ cookies}} \cdot \frac{1.5\text{ cups butter}}{1\text{ recipe}} \cdot \frac{16\text{ Tbsp}}{1\text{ cup}}150 cookies 1 ⋅ 1 recipe 60 cookies ⋅ 1.5 cups butter 1 recipe ⋅ 16 Tbsp 1 cup
= LaTeX: \frac{150(1)(1.5)(16)}{1(60)(1)(1)} 150 ( 1 ) ( 1.5 ) ( 16 ) 1 ( 60 ) ( 1 ) ( 1 )
= 60 Tbsp. butter
