Jones has 3/4 total fertilizer. He wants to use 1/8 each scoop to use all of the fertilizer.
We need to make these into proportions to understand the amount of each fraction easier. 1/8 = 0.125, and 3/4 = 0.750
To do this the quick way, divide 0.750 by 0.125
0.750/0.125 = 6.
He will have to use the measuring cup 6 times.
Hope this helps!
