Answer:

9/4 cup of sugar.

Step-by-step explanation:

It has been given that

3/4 cup of sugar is needed to make a cake.

Now, she has decided to make a huge cup which needs to triple amount of ingredients that she needs in a single cake.

Therefore, in order to make the huge cake of her family she needs three times of 3/4 cup of sugar.

Hence,

$\frac{3}{4}\times3\\\\=\frac{9}{4}$

Therefore, she needs 9/4 cup of sugar.
