Answer:

The restaurant cooked 3/10 as many cashews on Tuesday

Step-by-step explanation:

If the word problem says that they used 3/5 of a bag of cashews on Monday, and they used 1/2 AS MANY.

So "as many" gives us a clue to multiply.

3/5 * 1/2 = 3/10

So the restaurant cooks 3/10 bag of cashews on Tuesday
