Question

At the Roseville Middle School Spring Festival, Ellen is running the egg-dying station. She needs 5 tablespoons of vinegar for every 2 color tablets she uses. Ellen plans to use 16 color tablets.

How many tablespoons of vinegar will Ellen need?

Answer 1

40 table spoons

Explanation:

We need to divide 16 by 2 because it says for every 2 color tablets she need 5 table spoons of vinegar

16/2 = 8

8 x 5 = 4
