On Monday, Makayla eats a total of 3/4 cup + 1/2 cup = <<3/4+1/2=1 1/4>>1 1/4 cups of corn and carrots.

On Tuesday, Makayla eats 50/100 x 3/4 = <<50/100*3/4=3/8>>3/8 cup more carrots.
She eats 3/4 + 3/8 = <<3/4+3/8=15/8>>15/8 = <<15/8=1 7/8>>1 7/8 cups of carrots on Tuesday.
Makayla also eats 50/100 x 1/2 = <<50/100*1/2=1/4>>1/4 cup more corn.
She eats 1/2 + 1/4 = <<1/2+1/4=3/4>>3/4 cup of corn on Tuesday.
Therefore, Makayla eats a total of 1 7/8 + 3/4 = <<1+7/8+3/4=3 5/8>>3 5/8 cups of corn and carrots on Tuesday. Answer: \boxed{3 \frac{5}{8}}.
