    It is important to first simplify the numbers that are given in the question. It will make the problem easier to solve.

    Amount of sugar required to make a brown recipe = 1 1/3

    = 4/3 cups

    Amount of chocolate chips required = 1 cup

    Amount of sugar required in the second case = 4 2/3

    = 14/3 cups

    Now let us get down to the problem.

    Amount of chocolate chips required for 4/3 cups of sugar = 1

    Then

    Amount of chocolate chips required

    for 14/3 cups of sugar = (14/3) / (4/3)

    = 14/4

    = 7/2

    = 3 1/2 cups

    From the above deduction, it can be concluded that 3 1/2 cups of chocolate chips is required.
