    A recipe calls for 2 tablespoons of olive oil for every 3 servings. How much olive oil will be needed for 6 servings?

    Set up a proportion of tablespoons to servings:
    2/3 = o/6 where o is the number of tablespoons per 6 servings.

    Type 2/3 = o/6 into our search engine, and we get o = 4.
