Luis is making chocolate chip cookies. The recipe calls for 1/8 cup of almonds for every 3/4 cup of chocolate chips. If Luis uses 3 cups of chocolate chips, how many cups of almonds will he need? Round to the nearest tenth.(1 point)

To find out how many cups of almonds Luis will need when using 3 cups of chocolate chips, we can set up a ratio based on the recipe.

The recipe states that for every 3/4 cup of chocolate chips, 1/8 cup of almonds is used.

First, let's find out how many sets of 3/4 cups are in 3 cups of chocolate chips:

\[
\text{Number of sets} = \frac{3 \text{ cups}}{3/4 \text{ cup}} = 3 \times \frac{4}{3} = 4
\]

Now that we know there are 4 sets of 3/4 cup in 3 cups, we can find out how many cups of almonds are needed:

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

Thus, Luis will need **0.5 cup** of almonds.

The correct answer is **0.5 cup**.
