Answer 1

No, Joe and Grace don’t have enough together because 11/10 is only 1.1 and 3/4 is .75 and u add that together u get 1.85 which is less 2.

Grace needs 12 cups of sugar to make the cookies because 1 cups of sugar makes 6 cookies and each person is getting 3 that’s only enough for 2 people , so multiple every by 12 to get 24 people, 12 cups of sugar, and 72 cookies .
