Question

If you need to put 1 teaspoon in a 10 gallon tank how many teaspoons for a 8 gallon tank

Answer 1

Answer:

$0.8\ teaspoon$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the number of teaspoon

y ---> the number of gallons

we know that

$\frac{x}{y} =\frac{1}{10}$ ---> equation A

For y=8 gal

substitute the value of y in the equation A

so

$\frac{x}{8} =\frac{1}{10}$

solve for x

$x=\frac{1}{10}(8)$

$x=0.8\ teaspoon$
