    Answer: he will need 28 cups of dough for 3 cups of chocolate.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The baker uses 2 1/3 cups of cookie dough and 1/4 cup of chocolate chips to make 10 cookies. Converting 2 1/3 cups of cookie dough into improper fraction, it becomes 7/3 cups of cookie dough.

    It means that for every 1/4 cup of chocolate, 7/3 cups of cookie dough is needed.

    Let x represent the amount of cookie dough needed for 3 cups of chocolate chips.

    If 7/3 dough = 1/4 cup of chocolate

    x dough = 3 cups of chocolate

    x * 1/4 = 7/3 * 3

    x/4 = 7

    x = 7*4 = 28 cups of dough
