Liam uses 3 cups of milk to make 4 batches of muffins. How many cups of milk does he need to make just 1 batch of muffins?

To find out how many cups of milk Liam needs to make just 1 batch of muffins, you can divide the total amount of milk by the number of batches.

Liam uses 3 cups of milk to make 4 batches of muffins. So, the amount of milk needed for 1 batch is:

\[
\text{Milk per batch} = \frac{3 \text{ cups}}{4 \text{ batches}} = 0.75 \text{ cups}
\]

Thus, Liam needs **0.75 cups** (or 3/4 cups) of milk to make 1 batch of muffins.
