To find out how much cocoa powder would be needed to make 6 cups of hot chocolate, you can set up a proportion based on the ratio of cocoa powder to cups of hot chocolate.
The proportion can be set up as follows:
5 t (cocoa powder) / 2 cups (hot chocolate) = x (amount of cocoa powder) / 6 cups (hot chocolate)
Cross-multiplying, we have:
5 t * 6 cups = 2 cups * x
30 = 2x
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2, we get:
x = 15
Therefore, 15 teaspoons of cocoa powder would be needed to make 6 cups of hot chocolate.
