Answer 2

Answer:

He should use $\frac{3}{16}$ cups of chili powder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The total quantity of chili powder = $\frac{3}{8}$ cups,

Also, only half of the chilli powder is used,

So, the used quantity of chilli powder = $\frac{1}{2}\times \frac{3}{8}$

$=\frac{3}{16}$  ( Multiplication of fractions ),

Hence, he should use $\frac{3}{16}$ cup of chili powder.
