Set up proportions.
3/4 cups → 1 batch
x cups → 2 batches
x = 2(3/4) = 6/4 = 1 1/2 cups
3/4 cups → 1 batch
y cups → 9 batches
y = 9(3/4) = 6 3/4 cups
y = 9(3/4) = 6 3/4 cups

So would I do the same thing for 4-1/2 batches as well

Yes. Set it up as
3/4 cups → 1 batch
x cups → 4 1/2 batches
Then cross-multiply to find x. You should get exactly half of what it took to make 9 batches.
