What measures do you have? There are 12 tablespoons to 3/4 cup. If you have a quarter cup measure, you can use three.

If you have 1/3 cups, you can use two of them, which will be 10 tablespoons, and then just add 2 tablespoons of what you're trying to measure. Or 6 teaspoons if you don't have a tablespoon.

It depnds on what measuring utensils you have.

You can tmeasure 1 cup, then remove 1/4 cup. If you don't have a 1/4 cup measure, then remove 4 tablespoons. If you don't have a tablespoon--a standard coffe scoop is 2 T--so remove 2 coffee scoops.

The key information you need to remember is that 1 cup=16 tablespoons, or 48 teaspoons. With that information, and a knowledge of how to add and subtract fractions, you can improvise.

The answers above give you more than enough information to answer your question, but another option is to quadruple your recipe. Assuming you only have a 1 cup measuring cup (and no table or teaspoons) you will then use .75 x 4 = 3 cups.
