The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

The cost saver grocery club sells sheet cakes. Each 1/4 sheet of cake requires 0.75 teaspoon of baking soda. Which expression can be used to find the amount of baking soda needed for a whole cake? Select all the expressions that apply.

Let the amount baking soda required for a whole cake be y.

If each 1/4 sheet of cake requires 0.75 teaspoon of baking soda, the expression that can be used to find the amount of baking soda needed for a whole is as shown below;

1/4 sheet of cake = 0.75 teaspoon of soda

1 sheet of cake = y teaspoon of soda

cross multiply

1/4 * y = 1 * 0.75

y/4 = 0.75

multiply both sides by 4

y/4 * 4 = 0.75 * 4

y = 4(0.75)

y =  3 teaspoon of baking soda
