To determine the amount of almonds Luis will need, we can set up a proportion.
Let x be the number of cups of almonds Luis will need.
We know that the ratio of almonds to chocolate chips is 18/34.
Therefore, we can set up the proportion:
18/34 = x/3
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply:
34 * x = 18 * 3
34x = 54
Dividing both sides by 34, we get:
x = 54/34 ≈ 1.6
Therefore, Luis will need approximately 1.6 cups of almonds. Rounded to the nearest tenth, the answer is 1.6 cups.
