A batch contains 0.75 cup of lime juice.

The recipe of guacamole uses 12% of lime juice of a normal batch. This means that it contains less amount of lime juice, it contains 12% of 0.75

12% of 0.75 cup is 0.12 * 0.75, which is 0.09

The batch of guacamole was pretty small as it only contains 0.09 cup of lime juice.
