Answer:

36 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion:

12/3=c/9

Cross multiply.

12*9=3*c

108=3c

Divide both sides by 3.

c=36

The error that the proportion Kaycee set up was

cups/price=price/cups

This is not proportionate.

Possible proportions include:

cups/price=cups/price

price/cups=price/cups

cups/cups=price/price

price/price=cups/cups
