2 1/4 - 1 2/4
9/4 - 6/4
3/4

The required quantity of turkey is \(\frac{3}{4}\) times of bologna.

Given that,

She bought \(1\frac{1}{2}\) pound of bologna.

And \(2\frac{1}{4}\) pounds of turkey breasts.

We have to find,

How much more turkey breast than bologna did she buy.

According to the question,

She's bought \(1\frac{1}{2}\) bologna and \(2\frac{1}{4}\) of turkey.

Then,

The turkey breast is more than bologna did she buy,

Turkey breast is more than bologna = Total no. of bologna - Total no. of turkey.

\(= 2\frac{1}{4} - 1\frac{1}{2} \\= \frac{9}{4} - \frac{3}{2} \\= \frac{9-6}{4} \\= \frac{3}{4}\)

Hence, The required quantity of turkey is \(\frac{3}{4}\) times of bologna.
