How many cups of flour and sugar are needed for 1 batch? ** Flour + sugar = 4 + 1.5 = <<4+1.5=5.5>>5.5 cups
How many cups of flour and sugar are needed for 8 batches? ** 8 batches = 5.5 * 8 = <<8*5.5=44>>44 cups
How many cups of flour and sugar are needed for 8 batches? ** There would be 44 cups of flour and sugar combined for 8 batches of cookies.
