Given that in a 1/3 of a piece of candy has 12 grams of sugar, here is how we are going to find how much sugar is present in a 3/4 piece of candy.
So 1/3 : 12 g : 3/4 : ?
This is how we are going to represent it. Now, we do the cross multiplication.
3/4 times 12 is 9. Now we divide 9 by 1/3 and the answer 27. Therefore, there are 27 grams of sugar in a 3/4 piece of candy. Hope this helps.
