Anthony makes candies. First, he mixes 1 cup of cream with 2 cups of chocolate. In all, he used 9 cups of these 2 ingredients. How many cups of chocolate does he use in this candy recipe?

I may be wrong but 8 cups of chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

First I looked over what I needed to do, 1 cup of cream and 2 cups of chocolate.

The next thing I did was attempt to solve it in 2 different ways, the first one being adding 1 cup of cream and 2 cups of chocolate every time, but that didn't work. The second attempt I just kept 1 cup of cream and added 6 cups of chocolate.

I added 6 because there are already 2 cups of chocolate, so that would add up to 8 cups. We didn't add any cups of cream so its still one. 8+1 is obviously 9.

Sorry if I am wrong
