Question 328875
<font face="Garamond" size="+2">


The very best way to solve this problem is to simply double the sugar (and everything else in the recipe) and make 30 cookies.  Then eat 8 of them.


However, the likelihood of your teacher/instructor/professor accepting such an answer being as slim as it is, proceed thus:


Create a proportion:


*[tex \LARGE \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \frac{\frac{1}{8}}{15}\ =\ \frac{x}{22}]


Cross-multiply and solve for *[tex \Large x]
