Instead of brewing \blue{10}10start color blue, 10, end color blue cups, Mitchell wants to brew \red{15}15start color red, 15, end color red cups, which means he has to use \dfrac{\red{15}}{\blue{10}}=\purple{1.5}  

​  =1.5start fraction, start color red, 15, end color red, divided by, start color blue, 10, end color blue, end fraction, equals, start color purple, 1, point, 5, end color purple times more coffee.

The total amount of coffee he has to use is 100100100 grams \times×times \purple{1.5} \times \green{1.2} = 1801.5×1.2=180start color purple, 1, point, 5, end color purple, times, start color green, 1, point, 2, end color green, equals, 180 grams.
