A recipe for chocolate chip cookies with toffee bits and walnuts serves 8 people and needs 3 cups of flour. If Zachary wants to make the recipe for 14 people, how many cups of flour should he use? I will mark you as the brainliest IF answered correctly.

Im pretty sure it's 5.25 cups of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving for x

x=3×14/8

and reducing

x=5.25

x²
