To find out how much flour is needed for 15 dozen cookies, you first need to understand that 15 dozen is 5 times more than 3 dozen (since 15 divided by 3 equals 5). Therefore, if the recipe calls for $7 \frac{1}{2}$ cups of flour for 3 dozen cookies, for 15 dozen cookies (which is 5 times more), you would need $7 \frac{1}{2} \times 5 = 37 \frac{1}{2}$ cups of flour.
