Answer:

13 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

If the small box has 10 cups, then:

<u> (small) </u>     <u> 10 cups </u>   =  <u> 100% </u>

(medium)    x cups     =   130%

Now, cross multiply:

10 (130) = x (100)

1300 = 100x

x = 13

Another way to solve this is by turning 30% into a decimal:

30/100 = 0.3

10 (0.3) = 3

Now you have 30% of the 10 cups, but you need <u>30% more</u><em> </em>than the small box, so:

10 + 3 = 13 cups
