Using Linda's recipe:

2. How much dark chocolate will you need to make 60 candies? Write the proportion and solve.

Answer 1

Answer:

9 cups in total.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 cups is 20

To get 60 it would be like this.

3=20

6=40

9=60

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are going to concentrate only on chocolate lets ignore cream

So, let x be the chocolate and y be the candies

x=3 y=20

x=? y = 60

By cross multiplying we get,

3×60 = 20x

x = 3×60/20= 9 cups
