First, (again lol) you multiply the amount of chocolate chips the recipe calls for by the amount Lee wants to make.

so its 3/4 * 2/3

 =

6/12

1/2

Lee will need a fraction of 1/2 of a chip of chocolate chips for the recipe

Answer:

\(\frac{1}{2}\) cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Lee is making chocolate chip cookies and recipe requires \(\frac{3}{4}\) cups of chips

Then for \(\frac{2}{3}\) fraction of the recipe will require chocolate chips = \(\frac{3}{4}\) × \(\frac{2}{3}\)

        = \(\frac{1}{2}\) cups

Therefore, Lee will require  \(\frac{1}{2}\) cups of chocolate chips.
