One cup of white sugar is not exactly equal to one cup of brown sugar due to differences in moisture content and density. Brown sugar contains molasses, which adds moisture and makes it denser than white sugar. As a result, one cup of brown sugar may weigh slightly more than one cup of white sugar. When substituting, adjustments may be needed depending on the recipe.

If I reduce a recipe calling for 34 cup white sugar and 24 cup of brown sugar to using 16 cup of brown sugar how much white sugar do I use?

To maintain the original ratio of white sugar to brown sugar, first, calculate the total amount of sugar in the original recipe. The original recipe calls for 3/4 cup of white sugar and 2/4 cup (or 1/2 cup) of brown sugar, totaling 1 1/4 cups. Since you're using 1/2 cup of brown sugar (which is 2/4), the ratio indicates that for every 1 part of white sugar, there are 2 parts of brown sugar. Therefore, if you use 1/2 cup of brown sugar, you should use 1/4 cup of white sugar to keep the same ratio.
