To find the amount of baking soda Lisa should add to 9 lbs. of flour, we can set up a proportion:

2 tsp baking soda/6 lbs. of flour = x tsp baking soda/9 lbs. of flour

Cross-multiplying, we get:

6*x = 2*9

Simplifying:

6x = 18

Dividing both sides by 6:

x = 3

So Lisa should add 3 tsp of baking soda to 9 lbs. of flour.

Therefore, the answer is C. 3 tsp.
