Question

4. Anthony makes candies.

First, he mixes 1 cup of cream with 2 cups of chocolate.
In all, he uses 9 cups of these two ingredients.
How many cups of chocolate does he use in this candy recipe?

Explain.

Answer 1

6

Explanation:

There is 1 cup of cream for every 2 cups of chocolate. That means there are 3 cups of cream and 6 cups of chocolate. Each cup of cream = 2 cups of chocolate, so you would do 3*2 which equals 6

6 + 3 = 9
