    He should use 1 1/3 cup of sugar to bake 24 cookies.

    24/36 can be simplified into 2/3

    Multiply 2/3 to 2 cups to get its corresponding measurement used to bake 24 cookies.

    Steps in multiplication: 2/3 * 2/1

    Step 1. Multiply the numerators

    2 * 2 = 4

    Step 2. Multiply the denominators

    3 * 1 = 3

    Step 3. Simplify the fractions.

    4/3 = 1 1/3
