Use dimensionless spin angular momentum operators with ℏ=1 and the common-coefficient baryon hyperfine mass formula. The identical pair has total spin one, so its pair expectation is 1/4. For total baryon spin 1/2, the two mixed-flavour pair expectations sum to −1; for total spin 3/2, they sum to 1/2. Their difference is 3/2, giving the title formula for either repeated-flavour choice. The equality assumes the same effective coefficient A′ in the two flavour configurations; different spatial overlaps can change it.
