Question

Bill uses 1/2 tablespoon of salt for every 2/3 cup of popcorn when he makes popcorn. What

is the unit rate in tablespoons per cup?

Answer 1

`(3)/(4)` tablespoons per cup

Explanation:

[1] Create an equation:

`((1)/(2)salt )/((2)/(3)cup )=(x. tabelspoons)/(1 cup)`

[2] Cross multiply

`(1)/(2)salt=(2)/(3)x.tablespoons`

[3] Divide both sides by
`(2)/(3)`

`(3)/(4)` = x tablespoons
