Since the ratio of vinegar to baking soda is 3 to 1, we can find the parts of vinegar needed by multiplying 3 by the number of parts of baking soda.
In this case, there are 6 parts of baking soda, so we multiply 3 by 6 to find the parts of vinegar needed: 3 * 6 = 18.
Therefore, 18 parts of vinegar are needed if there are 6 parts of baking soda.
