Baking A recipe for chocolate chip cookies calls for $\frac{3}{4}$ cup brown sugar. Imelda wants to double the recipe.
ⓐ How much brown sugar will Imelda need? Show your calculation. Write your result as an improper fraction and as a mixed number.
ⓑ Measuring cups usually come in sets of $\frac{1}{8}, \frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{3}, \frac{1}{2},$ and $1$ cup. Draw a diagram to show two different ways that Imelda could measure the brown sugar needed to double the recipe.
