Question 1163271
.


            I will appeal to your common sense.



<pre>
In the base case, you have  2{{{2/3}}}  cups of flour.

It is the same as  {{{8/3}}}  cups of flour.



In the second case, you have  3{{{1/3}}} = {{{10/3}}}  cups of flour.


So, in the second case, you have more flour, and the ratio of the larger amount to the base amount is


    {{{((10/3))/((8/3))}}} = {{{10/8}}} = {{{5/4}}}.


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)  {{{5/4}}}.


By doing this way, you get the <U>ANSWER</U> :  {{{5/4}}} of the cup of chocolate is required.
</pre>

Solved.


Actually, &nbsp;this problem is on &nbsp;PROPORTIONS; &nbsp;but instead formal using proportions and writing four-floor/level fractions,

I explained the solution in wording form, &nbsp;in order you better understand the solution via your common sense.



Happy learning &nbsp;(!)
