WOW. What a bunch of answers. The correct answer must be

1 cup sugar x (81 brownies/9 brownies) = 9 cups of sugar OR

9 brownies/1 cup sugar x ? cups sugar = 81 brownies
? cups sugar = 81/9 = 9 cups sugar OR

(1 cup sugar/9 brownies) = (? cups sugar/81 brownies)
? cups sugar = 1 cup sugar x 81 brownies/9 brownies = 9 cups sugar needed.

Three ways to set it up and all get the same answer.

The answer is 9, because 81/9 = 9

geez this is simple mathematics

9 (NINE) times as many because

9 * 9 = 81
