If you had added 50mL of water to a sample of KHP instead of 30mL, would the titration of that sample then have required more, less or the same amount of base? EXPLAIN.

If the concentration of the KHP is the same for both solutions, then you would need more base. This is because with the same concentration and more of the solution, you will have more of the KHP which will need to be neautralized. To neautalize this increase in KHP you need more base.

Same amount of base.
You are neutralizing the moles of KHP. Adding more or less water to the sample doesn't change how many moles there are. In either case, you will need to add the exact same amount of base to neutralize it.

Less as extra vol is not required for ionisation.
