There are 22.67 cups of raisins required for 8 oz of chocolate according to the usual recipe.

Usual recipe required :

  • 12 oz chocolate for 34 cups of raisins

Expressing as a ratio :

  • Amount of raisin per oz of chocolate = (34/12) = 17/6

The number of cups of raisin for 8 oz of chocolate :

  • Amount of raisin per oz of chocolate × 8

  • (17/6) × 8 = 22.67 cups of raisin

Therefore, the required cups of raisins is 22.67 cups
