To find out how many cups of beans you would need for 14 servings, you can set up a proportion based on the recipe.
1. The recipe uses 1/3 cup of beans for 7 servings.
2. To find the amount needed for 14 servings, first determine how many times more servings you need: ( 14 div 7 = 2 ).
3. Since you need twice the amount of beans for double the servings, multiply ( frac{1}{3} ) cup by 2:
[
frac{1}{3} times 2 = frac{2}{3} text{ cups}
]
So, you would need 2/3 cups of beans to make 14 servings.
