Let x be a variable.
Using the ratio and the given number of 117, we can create the following formula:
1x + 3x + 9x = 117, where 3x is the cups of onion
Simplify this equation.
13x = 117
Divide both sides by 13
x = 9
We want to solve for 3x, so multiply both sides by 3
3x = 27
As I started earlier, 3x is how many cups of onions is needed; thus, 27 is our answer. Hope this helps! :)
