30 biscuits = 230g

60 biscuits = 460g

90 biscuits = 690g

...

What's the highest can you go on the biscuits so that the grams on the RHS stay below 1000g?
work out how much flour is needed for 1 bikkie. then see how many of that amount will fit into 1000g.

But then how can you have 1/15th of an egg for a single cookie? Seems impractical to me!
