Given:
The amount of granulated sugar used fo French fries, x=225 g.
1 pound=2cups.
1 pound=453.5g.
Since 1 pound =453.5 g,
[tex]1\text{ g=}\frac{1}{453.5}\text{ pound}[/tex]Therefore, 225 grams can be expressed in pound as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 225\text{ g=}225\text{ g}\times\frac{\frac{1}{453.5}pound}{1\text{ g}} \\ =\frac{225}{453.5}pound \\ \cong0.496\text{ pound} \end{gathered}[/tex]Since 1 pound =2 cups, we can write
[tex]\begin{gathered} 0.496pound=0.496pound\times\frac{2cup}{1\text{ pound}} \\ =0.992\text{ cups} \\ \cong1\text{ cup} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, 1 cup is needed.
