How much almond extract should you add if the recipe calls for 0.75 teaspoon?

  1. 1/4 of a teaspoon

  2. 1/2 of a teaspoon

  3. 3/4 of a teaspoon

  4. 1/3 of a teaspoon

The correct answer is: 3/4 of a teaspoon

The recipe specifies the addition of 0.75 teaspoon of almond extract, which is equivalent to 3/4 teaspoon. This measurement is exactly what the recipe calls for, meaning that if you add this amount, you will be following the instructions correctly. The other options do not represent the required measurement accurately. For instance, adding 1/4 teaspoon is significantly less than needed, and 1/2 teaspoon is still under the specified amount. Similarly, adding 1/3 of a teaspoon does not meet the requirement, as it is less than the needed 3/4 teaspoon. Therefore, adding 3/4 teaspoon ensures that the recipe is made as intended.
