Answer:

3 cups

1/2x6=3

something I recommend for questions like this is the Desmos calculator, it does fractions and decimals.

Answer: he would need 3 cups of powder
Step by step explanation: for one cup of hot chocolate he needs 1/2 cup of powder, so to make six cups you simply multiply 1/2 times 6 which is 3 cups of powder.
