3.how many 5/6 cup salt shakers can be filled from 24 cups of salt? ​

Respuesta :

Answer:

2. 1/24 tablespoons

3. Approximately 29 salt shakers

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The child needs to take 1/6 tablespoons of medicines in 4 equal doses. One dose would therefore be 1/6 divided by 4.

= 1/6 ÷ 4

= 1/6 * 1/4

= 1/24 tablespoons of medicine

3. One cup salt shaker takes 5/6 cups to be filled. Assume the number of salt shakers that can be filled by cups is x.

5/6* x = 24

x = 24 ÷ 5/6

x =  28.8 salt shakers

= Approximately 29 salt shakers
