A chef's specialty calls for one- fiftieth of an ounce of a spice per serving. The chef has a digital scale that shows the weight as a decimal. What scale reading does the chef need to see for this spice when preparing the specialty for 43 people?

In order to find the answer, you need to multiply the amount that the chef uses per serving for the number of servings. The statement indicates that the chef uses one- fiftieth of an ounce of a spice per serving and this is represented as 1/50 and you have to multiply this for 43 that is the number of people.

You can find 1/50 as a decimal dividing 1 by 50:

1/50=0.02

Now, you can multiply this value for 43:

0.02=43=0.86

According to this, the answer is that the scale reading that the chef need to see for this spice when preparing the specialty for 43 people is 0.86.
