Solution

Julia started with 3/4 of a cup of pineapple juice in the measuring cup. She then poured 1/4 of a cup back into the container. To find out how much juice remains in the cup, you subtract the amount she poured back from the initial amount.

Here's the calculation:

3/4 (initial amount) - 1/4 (amount poured back) = 2/4 or 1/2 cup

So, 1/2 cup of pineapple juice remains in the measuring cup.
