Since we know that 3 spoons makes 345 ounces, and we want to find how many ounces two spoons will make, we cna first find out how many ounces a single spoon can make, and then multiply the number by two in order to find how many ounces two spoons will make.
345/3 = 115 ounces of cleanser per spoon
115 x 2 = 230 ounces for two spoons
