To find out how much more milk than water Abagail used, we need to subtract the amount of water from the amount of milk.
Abagail used 3/4 cups of milk and 1/2 cups of water.
To subtract 1/2 cups from 3/4 cups, we need to convert them to a common denominator.
Multiplying 1/2 by 2 gives us 2/4 cups of water.
Now, we can subtract 2/4 cups of water from 3/4 cups of milk:
3/4 - 2/4 = 1/4
Therefore, Abagail used 1/4 cups more milk than water in the recipe.
