Using Measurement in the <strong>Kitchen</strong><br />

Cooking in Batches #20<br />

Division and multiplication<br />

Some foods cannot be cooked all at once. You must cook them in several<br />

batches.<br />

Example: A recipe makes 72 cookies. You can only bake 24 cookies at a<br />

time. The cookies will bake for 8 minutes.<br />

Problem 1: How many batches must you make?<br />

Solution 1: 72 ÷ 24 = 3 batches<br />

You must bake 3 separate batches.<br />

Problem 2: How many minutes will it take to bake all the cookies?<br />

Solution 2: 8 minutes x 3 batches = 24 minutes<br />

They will take 24 minutes in all.<br />

Directions: For each problem below, find out how many batches are needed.<br />

Then calculate how long it would take to cook them.<br />

a. You want 8 pieces of toast.<br />

Your toaster makes 2 pieces at<br />

a time. Toast takes 3 minutes.<br />

b. Bannock bakes for 12 minutes.<br />

The recipe makes 32 pieces.<br />

You can only cook 16 pieces at<br />

a time.<br />
