Answer 1

Problem

there 4 teaspoons of toasted sesame seed per 1/3 teaspoons of pepper flakes.how many teaspoons of toasted sesame seeds does Omar need for 2/3 teaspoon of pepper flakes ​

Solution

For this case we have the following relationship:

4 teaspoons toasted sesame seed = 1/3 teaspoons of pepper flakes

And we want to estimate the number of teaspoons of toasted sesame seeds for 2/3 of paper flakes , so we can do this:

1/3 /(4) = x/(2/3)

And if we solve for x we got:

x= 2/3 *(1/12) = 2/36

And if we simplify we got:

x= 1/18

So then the final answer for this case would be 1/18 teaspoons of pepper flakes
