There are 7/8 cups of sugar in canister in the kitchen. Ms Johnson used 1/2 of the sugar when she was preparing dessert for her daughter’s birthday cake. How much sugar did she use?

Answer 1

To find how much sugar Ms Johnson used, we need to multiply 7/8 by 1/2.
7/8 * 1/2 = (7*1)/(8*2) = 7/16
Ms Johnson used 7/16 cups of sugar. Answer: \boxed{\frac{7}{16}}.
