Divide these ingredients by 3?!


Question: Divide these ingredients by 3!?
Ok so the recipe makes six cakes but I only need two!. Can you divide these by three (make sure it's correct)!. I would do it myself but I'm in the middle of a cook-off and there are many other things to be done!. Thanks!!

1 1/4 cup sifted flour
2 Tbsp!. sugar
1 tsp!. baking soda
3/4 tsp!. baking powder
1 tsp!. salt
1 egg
3/4 cup milkWww@FoodAQ@Com

Your better off to make a full batch and only use what you need, to divide everything by three might make it taste bad!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

5/4 cup of flour -> 5/12 cup, or just under 1/2 cup flour!.
2 tbsp!. sugar = 6 tsp, so -> 2 tsp!. sugar!.
1 tsp!. baking soda -> 1/3 tsp!. baking soda (no way around this)
3/4 tsp!. baking powder -> 1/4 tsp!. baking powder!.
1 tsp!. salt -> 1/3 tsp!. salt
1 egg -> beat the egg separately, then measure out 1/3 of the mix!.
3/4 cup milk -> 1/4 cup milk!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

1!.25 cup flour/3 = 0!.416666667 cups (so just under 1/2 cup)
2 Tbsp!. sugar/3= 0!.666666667tablespoons (so just over 1/2 tablespoon)
1tsp!. baking soda= I would just eyeball this
3/4 sp!. baking powder/3= 1/4 baking powder
1tsp!. salt= I would just eyeball this as well!.
1 egg/3= I would mix the egg and try to split it up into three as well
3/4 cup milk/3= 1/4cup milk
