Question

Write an expression for the amount of sugar Farid needs to make 1/2 of a batch of muffins.

Answer 1

She is making half batch only, So she will require the half amount of sugar which means we need to multiply 1/2 and 3/4

`(1)/(2) / (3)/(4)`

`(1×3)/(2×4)`

`(3)/(8)`

She will require 0.375 cup of sugar for making 1/2 batch...~

Answer 2

`(3)/(4) \ * \ (1)/(2)`

Step-by-step explanation:

Full batch requires
`\sf(3)/(4)` cups of sugar.

she is making half the batch so we shall half it.

• 
  `\sf(3)/(4)` ÷ 2 →
  `\sf(3)/(8)` → 0.375

note: we can write x ÷ 2, as
`* \ \sf(x)/(2)`
