The Deep Dive
To determine how much lemon juice Jason needs, we first calculate how many batches of cookies he must make. Since each batch produces 18 cookies, Jason needs 45 cookies, so he must prepare 2.5 batches (because 45 ÷ 18 = 2.5). Each batch requires 3.75 fluid ounces of lemon juice, so for 2.5 batches, he needs 9.375 fluid ounces (3.75 x 2.5 = 9.375). Converting these fluid ounces into pints, we know there are 16 fluid ounces in a pint. Therefore, to find how many pints he needs, we divide the fluid ounces needed by the number of fluid ounces per pint. That means Jason would need about 0.586 pints (9.375 ÷ 16). In simpler terms, Jason needs just under 0.6 pints of lemon juice to bake those cookies. Now, he needs to check if the pint bottle he bought has enough. A standard pint bottle provides 16 fluid ounces of lemon juice, which is much more than the 9.375 fluid ounces he requires. So yes, he has plenty of lemon juice for a zesty batch of cookies!
