I will appeal to your common sense.
In the base case, you have 2 cups of flour.
It is the same as cups of flour.
In the second case, you have 3 = cups of flour.
So, in the second case, you have more flour, and the ratio of the larger amount to the base amount is
= = .
Now your common sense says you that in the second case, you should multiply the base chocolate amount
from the receipt, which is 1 cup, by this factor (ratio) .
By doing this way, you get the ANSWER : of the cup of chocolate is required.
Solved.
Actually, this problem is on PROPORTIONS; but instead formal using proportions and writing four-floor/level fractions,
I explained the solution in wording form, in order you better understand the solution via your common sense.
Happy learning (!)
