To find out how many cups of almonds Luis will need, we can set up a proportion using the given ratio of almonds to chocolate chips.
Let x represent the number of cups of almonds Luis will need.
We have the proportion:
18/34 = x/3
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and then divide:
18 * 3 = 34 * x
54 = 34x
x = 54/34
Rounded to the nearest tenth, Luis will need approximately 1.6 cups of almonds.
Therefore, the correct response is:
0.8 cup.

According to the recipe, Lenny needs 2 parts borax, 2 parts washing soda, and 1 part soap flakes.
Let's calculate the amount of borax and washing soda he needs:
Since Lenny is using 7 cups of soap flakes, he will need:
2 parts of borax: 2 * 7 = 14 cups of borax
2 parts of washing soda: 2 * 7 = 14 cups of washing soda
Therefore, Lenny will need a total of 14 cups of borax and washing soda combined.
The correct response is:
14 cups.

To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion using the given ratio of baking soda to flour.
Let x represent the amount of baking soda Lisa should add to 9 lbs. of flour.
We have the proportion:
2 tsp / 6 lbs. = x tsp / 9 lbs.
To solve for x, we can cross-multiply and then divide:
2 * 9 = 6 * x
18 = 6x
x = 18/6
Therefore, Lisa should add 3 tsp of baking soda to 9 lbs. of flour.
The correct response is:
3 tsp.
