To find how much of each ingredient is needed for **1/2** of a batch of trail mix, you simply divide the amounts of each ingredient in a full batch by 2.

For **1/2 batch** of trail mix:
- **Chocolate chips**: \( \frac{6}{2} = 3 \)
- **Pretzels**: \( \frac{12}{2} = 6 \)
- **Cashews**: \( \frac{18}{2} = 9 \)

So, in **1/2 batch**:
- **3 chocolate chips**
- **6 pretzels**
- **9 cashews**
