Answer:

5 1/2 pounds of sugar

Explanation:

Since each cake recipe calls for 1 pound of sugar, then for 6 cake recipes, Cassie would need 6 pounds of sugar.

Since Cassie already has 1/2 pound of sugar, you have to subtract that from 6 pounds.

6-1/2=5 1/2

5 1/2 is the answer.

I hope this helped :)
