Fran is making pancakes. The recipe for the pancakes calls for 1/8 teaspoon of salt for every 3/4 cup of flour. Fran makes an amount of pancakes that needs 18 cups of flour. How much salt, in teaspoons, does Fran need to use for the pancakes?

3 teaspoon

Step-by-step explanation:

If for every 3/4 cup of flour we will need 1/8 teaspoon of salt, then:

1/8 teaspoon = 3/4 cup of flour

To get the amount of teaspoon needed for 18cups we will say:

x teaspoon = 18 cups

Solving both equalities for x:

1/8 teaspoon = 3/4 cup of flour

x teaspoon = 18 cups

Cross multiply

3/4 * x = 18 * 1/8

3x/4 = 18/8

cross multiply again

3x*8 = 4*18

24x = 72

x = 72/24

x = 3

Hence Fran needs 3 teaspoon of salt fir 18cups of flour
