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

Answer:
[tex]\dfrac{3}{4} \ * \ \dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]
Explanation:
Full batch requires [tex]\sf\frac{3}{4}[/tex] cups of sugar.
she is making half the batch so we shall half it.
note: we can write x ÷ 2, as [tex]* \ \sf\dfrac{x}{2}[/tex]
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
[tex] \frac{1}{2} \div \frac{3}{4} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{1×3}{2×4} [/tex]
[tex] \frac{3}{8} [/tex]
She will require 0.375 cup of sugar for making 1/2 batch...~
