Answer:

[?] = 4

(the complete term is
4(1)/(2)\ \text{cups})

Explanation:


8\ \text{cups} - 1(1)/(3)\ \text{cups} - 2(1)/(6)\ \text{cups} = (8-1-2)\ \text{cups} + (-(6)/(3) - 1)/(6)\ \text{cups} = 5\ \text{cups} + (-3)/(6)\ \text{cups} = 5\ \text{cups} + (-1)/(2)\ \text{cups} = 4\ \text{cups} + (2 - 1)/(2)\ \text{cups}
