A tomato sauce recipe calls for 3/4 Cups of basil for each 1/8 teaspoon of salt. If 1 cup of basil
is used, how many teaspoons of salt should be used?


Sagot :

Answer: 1/6 teaspoon of salt

Work Shown:

3/4 cups basil : 1/8 teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : (4/3)*(1/8) teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : (4*1)/(3*8) teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : 4/24 teaspoon of salt

1 cup basil : 1/6 teaspoon of salt

You'll split a full teaspoon into 6 smaller pieces, and only use one of those pieces.
