The complete table is:

Cups of chocolate chips 3 6 9 12

Cups of peanut butter chips 2 4 6 4

How to use unit rate?

From the given table, we see that:

The brownies have 3 cups of chocolate chips for every 2 cups of peanut butter chips.

Therefore, the unit rate is:

Unit rate = 2/3

Thus:

When brownies have 6 cups of chocolate chips:

cups of peanut butter chips = (2/3) * 6 = 4

When brownies have 9 cups of chocolate chips:

cups of peanut butter chips = (2/3) * 9 = 6

When brownies have 12 cups of chocolate chips:

cups of peanut butter chips = (2/3) * 12 = 8
