Answer:

Sticks of butter : 2

Number of cookies : 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :You need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you bake.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sticks of butter                    Number of cookies

 3                                           24

 x                                             16

5                                                 y

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let the unknown be x and y..

Since you need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you back

Then 24/3 = 8

Since the number of cookies is 16 then 16/8 = 2

Thus x = 2

Next for y.

Since you need 3 sticks of butter for every 24 giant cookies you back

Then 5 * 8 = 40

Thus, y = 40

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Completed table below:

Sticks of butter                    Number of cookies

 3                                           24

 2                                             16

5                                                 40
