Let's reduce Jill's ratio to understand better.

45 chocolate chips for 9 ounce. Let's figure out number of chocolate chips PER OUNCE.

That would be:

45/9 = 5

That's 5 chocolate chips per ounce.

Now,

Costco uses 100 chocolate chips for 18 ounces. Let's figure out the number of chocolate chips PER OUNCE.

100/18 = 5.55

That's 5.55 chocolate chips per ounce, for Costco.

That's more than Jill's recipe. Jill will think Costo uses more chocolate chips per ounce of dough.
