how much milk she needs?

Answer 1

Explanation:

To divide the total amount of milk in a recipe in half, first find the original amount. The original recipe asks for 1 half cups milk plus 3/4 cup milk.

So dividing in half, she will need: half of "1 half cups milk plus 3/4 cup milk"

= 1/4 cup + 3/8 cup milk

Answer 2

Solution given:

Alycia needs half of total milk.

total milk =1/2 cup +3/4 cup

now half milk =1/2×1/2cup of milk +3/4×1/2 cup of milk=1/4+3/8=5/8 cup of milk is needed.
