    2.25 cups

    Step-by-step explanation:

    3 cups is to 8 servings as 'x' cups is to 6 servings ...

    becomes ...

    3/8 = x/6 now solve for x ...

    [3 (6) ]/8 = x (multiply both sides by 6 to get rid of the fraction on the right)

    18/8 = x

    9/4 = x

    2 1/4 = x

    2.25 = x
