Answer:
(3/4) cups
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that,
Lindsey's cookie recipe uses 1 1/2 cups of brown sugar to make 2 dozen cookies.
We need to find how much brown sugar should Lexi use to make only 1 dozen cookies.
2 dozen cookies = 1 1/2 cups
= 3/2 cups
For 1 dozen cookies,
[tex]\dfrac{\dfrac{3}{2}}{2}\\\\=\dfrac{3}{4}\ \text{cups}[/tex]
So, to make 1 dozen cookies, she will need (3/4) cups of brown sugar
