Answer 1

Milk is a required in a larger quantity and by 1 whole 1/12 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

First we take cups of milk = 2whole 3/4 = 11/4

second we take cups of cream = 1 whole 2/3 = 5/3

11/4 cups = 11/4 × 3/3 = 33/12

5/3 = 5/3 × 4/4 = 20/12

33/12 >20/12

Milk is a required in a larger quantity

2 whole3/4 > 1 whole 3/4

Difference

33-20/12 = 13/12 = 1 whole 1/2 cups
