You need 1/2 cup of sugar to make a three layer cake.how much sugar would you need for one layer cake?
(1/2 cup) x (1 layer/3 layer) = ?
To determine the amount of sugar needed for one layer of the cake, we can divide the total amount of sugar needed for the three-layer cake by the number of layers.
In this case, we know that 1/2 cup of sugar is needed for a three-layer cake. To find the amount for one layer, we divide 1/2 cup by 3 (since there are three layers).
1/2 cup / 3 = 1/6 cup
So, you would need 1/6 cup of sugar for one layer of the cake.
