Math+7+Assignment+Recipe+to+Success

Recipe to Success!  Individually, you will find a recipe and using the techniques we learned for calculating a percent of a number, you will create a new recipe that yields 25% of the original. Once you have collected your recipe, created a recipe that would yield 25% of the original, and made new instructions on how to make your recipe, you will make your cookies! In groups of four, you will select one of the groups’ recipes to make. You will find a recipe made from some of the ingredients listed below as well as some other items you may have at home. The idea is to gain a real life perspective and extra practice with conversions and percents. You must meet all the recipe specifications and you will be graded using the rubric below.
