If the new amount of sugar is 4.8g in every 50g, then the original amount of sugar must have been 1/3 larger (1 - 1/4 = 3/4, which is 1/3 larger than 1/2).
To find the original amount of sugar in 50g of cereal, we can multiply 4.8g by 4/3:
4.8g x 4/3 = 6.4g
Therefore, the original amount of sugar in 50g of Corn Crispies cereal was 6.4g.
