Do you mean how many single shakes could she make with 3 cups of syrup, then how many double shakes could she make, and how many triples? Or, do you need to mix and match the shake sizes?
mix and match the shake sizes to equal using 3 cups
The question asks how many shakes of each size can be made.

Single:
(1/8) / 3 = 8 * 3 = 24 shakes

Double:

Triple:
24 shakes
