A) \[\frac{\text{4}}{\text{5}}\text{cup}\]
B) \[\frac{6}{\text{5}}\text{cup}\]
C) \[\frac{3}{8}\text{cup}\]
D) \[\frac{\text{5}}{\text{8}}\text{cup}\]
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
We have, 1 tablespoon\[\text{=}\frac{\text{1}}{\text{16}}\text{cup}\] \[\Rightarrow \text{2}\] tablespoons \[=\frac{2}{16}\] cup \[\text{=}\frac{\text{1}}{\text{8}}\text{ cup}\] So, the amount of sugar requires in second recipe \[\text{=}\frac{\text{1}}{\text{8}}\text{ cup}\] Also, amount of sugar requires in first recipe \[\text{=}\frac{\text{1}}{\text{2}}\text{cup}\] \[\therefore \] Difference \[=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{8}=\frac{4-1}{8}=\frac{3}{8}\text{cup}\] So, \[\frac{\text{3}}{\text{8}}\text{cup}\] more sugar required for first recipe.
