Making chocolate chip cookies the recipe calls for 1/8 of a cup of almonds for every 3/4 a cup of chocolate chips if you use 3 cups of chocolate chips, how many cups of almonds will you need round to the nearest 10th?

To find out how many cups of almonds you need for 3 cups of chocolate chips, you can set up a proportion based on the given ratio.

The recipe calls for:
- 1/8 cup of almonds for every 3/4 cup of chocolate chips.

First, we calculate how many times 3/4 fits into 3 cups:

\[
\frac{3 \text{ cups}}{3/4 \text{ cups}} = 3 \times \frac{4}{3} = 4
\]

This means that 3 cups of chocolate chips is equivalent to 4 times the amount of chocolate chips in the recipe.

Now, we multiply the amount of almonds needed (1/8 cup) by this factor of 4:

\[
\text{Almonds needed} = 4 \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2} \text{ cup}
\]

Therefore, for 3 cups of chocolate chips, you will need **0.5 cups of almonds**.

Since you only need to round to the nearest tenth, the final answer is:

**0.5 cups of almonds.**
