Answer:

Eli

Explanation:

To find the most chocolately, analyze the unit rate per 1 ounce. The unit rate with more chocolate in ml per 1 ounce will be more chocolately.

To find the unit rate, create a fraction of syrup over hot water.

Arjun -
(20ml)/(3)= 6.67 ml per 1 ounce

Eli -
(45ml)/(6) = 7.5 ml per 1 ounce

Eli's is greater and therefore more chocolately.
