Lizzy: Gigi is baking cookies. The recipe for 1 batch of cookies calls for 2 cups of flour. She bakes 3 batches of cookies. If her bag of flour contains 20 cups of flour, how many more batches of cookies could Gigi make in the future with the remaining amount of flour?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:
For 3 batches of cookies, Gigi uses 3 * 2 = 6 cups of flour. The amount of flour remaining in the bag is 20 - 6 = 14 cups of flour. Since 1 batch uses 2 cups of flour, Gigi can make 14 / 2 = 7 more batches of cookies. Final answer: 7.
