In this case, we'll have to carry out several steps to find the solution.

Step 01:

12 cupcakes:

3 1/2 cups of flour

3/4 cups of sugar

1 cup of sugar:

cups of flour = ?

Step 02:

3 1/2 cups of flour = 3 + 0.5 = 3.5

3/4 cups of sugar = 0.75


\text{cups of flour = }1\text{ cup sugar }\cdot\text{ }\frac{3.5\text{ coups flour}}{0.75\text{ cups sugar}}

cups of flour = 4.67

The answer is:

It needed 4.67 cups of flour
