Question 893824
You can solve this in steps:
1/2 of the recipe would be 3/7 of a cup
This is the same as 6/14 of a cup
------------------------------
1/4 of the recipe would be half of this, or
3/14 of a cup
This is the same as 6/28
----------------------
1/8 of the recipe would be 1/2 of this, or
3/28 of a cup
----------------
3/8 of the recipe would be 3 times this, or
9/28 of a cup
-----------------
Or, you can do it in 3 steps:
{{{ ( 3/8 )*( 6/7 ) = 18/56 }}}
{{{ 18/56 = ( 2/2 )*( 9/28 ) }}}
{{{ ( 2/2 )*( 9/28 ) = 9/28 }}}
9/28 of a cup is needed
