Answer:

We conclude that for 1/2 batch, Faird would require 3/8 cups of sugar.

Explanation:

  • Suger needed for a full batch = 3/4
  • Given that Farid is making 1/2 of batch

We need to determine the expression for the amount of sugar Freed needs to make 1/2 batch.

Let 'x' be the batch and 'y' be the amount of sugar

Suger needed for a full batch = 3/4 cup of a sugar

so

  • x = 3/4y

But, Farid is making 1/2 of the batch.

Thus, multiply both sides by 1/2


x* (1)/(2)\:=\:(3)/(4)y* (1)/(2)


(x)/(2)=(3y)/(8)

Therefore, we conclude that for 1/2 batch, Faird would require 3/8 cups of sugar.
