Answer :
I would say it's 3/8 of a cup because if you multiply 3/4 by 2 it would be 6/8. It's the same amount but just a different measurement. Now just take 3 away from 6/8 and you have 3/8 which is half of 3/4.
We need 1/2 of 3/4. So it'll look like this:
(3/4)/2
So! We need to work with this fraction inside a fraction. To do so take the denominator and flip it. Then multiply across.
3/4 * 1/2
3/8
Or you can think of it like this!
3/4 is 0.75.
0.75/2 is 0.375 or in fraction form 3/8.
You can find the fraction form of 0.375 like a so... :
(Each time I divide both the numerator and denominator by 5)
375/1000
75 / 200
15 / 40
3 / 8
(3/4)/2
