Answer:

3/4 cups of water

Explanation:

If there are 1/3 cup of milk for 1/4 cup water that means that if you make the denominator the same which would make 4/12 cup milk and 3/12 cup of water and add 3/12 +3/12+3/12 you get 9/12 which is 3/4 cups. adding 3/12 three times because it is 1/3 cup milk.
