Question

Jessica is baking a cake . the recipe says that she has to mix 96 grams of sugar into flour . jessica knows that 1 cup of this particular sugar has a mass of 128 grams . she added 1 half of a cup of sugar to the flour . should jessica add more sugar to make the exact recipe , or did she go over by what amount

Answer 1

She still needs more sugar because 1 half of a cup of sugar has 64 grams .
128 divided by 2=64
A half plus a half = a whole
64 + 64=128
She should add more sugar if she wants to make the exact recipe.
