<u>Answer:</u>
The amount of butter, sugar and flour does Clifford need is 2.5 cups flour, 3.75 cups sugar and 1.25 butter
<u>Explanation</u>:
Consider the number of cup of flour used to be x
According to question,
Recipe calls for 1.5 times as much flour as sugar
Sugar =
Sugar = 1.5x
Butter = ½ x = 0.5x
According to question,
Flour + Sugar + Butter = 7.5
x + 1.5x + 0.5x = 7.5
3x = 7.5
x = 2.5
Sugar = 1.5x = 1.5(2.5) = 3.75
Butter = 0.5(2.5) = 1.25
Clifford need is 2.5 cups flour, 3.75 cups sugar and 1.25 cups butter
