5. The reason why it works is because

Explanation:

3. Based on the shaded region of the given figures, the two fractions are equivalent

Mathematically, we can show the equivalency of the two fractions as follows;


image

Therefore;

4. From the shaded region of the given figure, the fractions are equivalent

Mathematically, we have;


image

Therefore;

5. The amount of salt required by the recipe = 1/4 teaspoon of salt

The measure of the spoon Jonas has = 1/8 teaspoon

When Jonas adds two 1/8 teaspoons, he gets;


image

Therefore;


image

Two 1/8 measuring teaspoons are equivalent to one 1/4 teaspoons and therefore Jonas is able to get the 1/4 teaspoons of salt the recipe asks for b combining two 1/8 measuring teaspoons of salt he has because 1/8 + 1/8 = 1/4.
