Q. Logan and his sister, Tessa, are baking oatmeal raisin cookies. Logan uses 1.251.25-ounce scoops of dough to form his cookies, and Tessa uses 1121\frac{1}{2}-ounce scoops for hers.\newlineWho is making bigger cookies?\newlineChoices:\newline(A) Logan\newline(B) Tessa
  1. Convert scoop size to decimal: Convert Tessa's scoop size to a decimal for easier comparison.\newline1121 \frac{1}{2} ounces is equal to 1.51.5 ounces.
  2. Compare Logan and Tessa: Compare the scoop sizes of Logan and Tessa. Logan uses 1.251.25 ounces, and Tessa uses 1.51.5 ounces.
  3. Determine larger scoop: Determine who is using the larger scoop. Since 1.51.5 ounces (Tessa) is greater than 1.251.25 ounces (Logan), Tessa is making bigger cookies.
