Answer:

0.61 ( A )

Explanation:

The standard proportion of Sugar, lemon juice and water needed to make a Lemonade is Usually 1 cup each

But If you Intend to make Your lemonade less sweet you can increase the water or reduce the amount of sugar to ≈ 1 ( i.e. less than 1 but approximately = 1 )

Hence The appropriate amount of sugar needed will be = 0.61
