Answer: 8 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by the Rule of three:

If:

[tex]\frac{2}{3} cup[/tex]-----[tex]11 milkshakes[/tex]

[tex]?[/tex]-----[tex]132 milkshakes[/tex]

Then:

[tex]?=\frac{(\frac{2}{3} cup)(132 milkshakes)}{11 milkshakes}[/tex]

[tex]?=8 cups[/tex]

This means Margaret needs 8 cups of strawberry syrup to make 132 milkshakes.
