A 2-pound bag of sugar contains 227 one-teaspoon servings and costs $249. A batch of muffins uses
cup of sugar. How many whole batches can you make if you use as much of the sugar as possible? What is
the cost of sugar for each batch? (1 cup = 48 teaspoons; do not consider leftover sugar in the cost
calculation.)

Answer:

Total cost for 4 batches is $210.61

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming 1 cup per batch...

[tex] \frac{227}{48} = 4.729 \: batches[/tex]

so 4 whole batches...

[tex]4 \times 48 = 192[/tex]

192 tsps...

[tex] \frac{249}{227} = 1.0969[/tex]

roughly $1.10 per tsp...

[tex]192 \times 1.0969 = 210.6079[/tex]

Total cost for 4 batches is $210.61
