1. **State the problem:** We want to find how much sugar is needed to make 10 dozen cookies if 2 dozen cookies require 1 \frac{1}{3} cups of sugar.
2. **Convert mixed number to improper fraction:**
1 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{4}{3} cups of sugar.
3. **Set up the proportion:**
Sugar needed is proportional to the number of cookies.
So, sugar for 10 dozen = \frac{10}{2} \times \frac{4}{3}.
4. **Calculate:**
\frac{10}{2} = 5
5 \times \frac{4}{3} = \frac{20}{3} = 6 \frac{2}{3} cups.
5. **Final answer:**
You need $6 \frac{2}{3}$ cups of sugar to make 10 dozen cookies.
