A recipe for pasta sauce is deigned to feed 6 people. The recipe calls for 2/3 cup of garilc, 1 1/2 cup of tomatoes and 3/4 cup of butter. If Vincent wants to modify the recipe, so that it feeds 15 people, how much of each ingredient will he need?? Plzzz write a proportion to solve and I will give you 200 points

1 (2)/(3) garlic \: + 3 (3)/(4) tomatoes + 2 (3)/(6) butter
I'm guessing that if u want to adjust the recipe, multiply the original ingredients by 15/6 but I could be wrong
