    First you would need to dive what you have of each ingredient by how much you need for 6 people.

    Flour: 450 : 150 = 3

    Sugar: 380 : 150 = 2

    Cocoa: 300 : 120 = 2.5

    Eggs: 8 : 3 = 2.7

    then you look at the total batches each could make and average it to 2 batches. then multiply 6 by 2.

    6*2 = 12

    so all together, the maximum amount of people you can make for is 12.
