Question

It takes 2 5/6 spoons of chocolate syrup to make 4/6 of a gallon off chocolate milk. How many spoons of syrup would it take 1 gallon of chocolate milk

Answer 1

25.5

Explanation:

First, make 2 5/6 into an improper fraction:

17/6

Then divide it by 4 to get the unit rate of spoons of chocolate syrup per 1/6 gallon:

17/6 / 4= 4 1/4 or 4.25 <------ Unit rate

Then multiply it by 6:

4.25*6= 25.5
