Answer:

C

Explanation:

If we round up the 3/4 cup of sugar to 1 cup to make it easier, and then multiply by 2 because the 3/4 cup of sugar only makes half a dozen cupcakes, then we will get 2 cups of sugar which is an overestimate of how much is needed. If we multiply it again by 3 because he needs 3 times the amount of sugar, we get 6 cups of sugar because we rounded it up. Since we know 3/4 is less than 1, we can assume that 6 cups of sugar is more than needed.
